Minter to speak at Legacy League luncheon

Kelly Minter, a Christian author, musician, Bible study creator and speaker, is this year’s guest speaker at the Samford Legacy League’s Scholarship Luncheon.

The luncheon will be Thursday, Jan. 28 at 11:30 a.m. at a country club in Vestavia Hills.

Minter has written several books and Bible studies, including a memoir about her trips to the Amazon jungle titled Wherever the River Runs: How a Forgotten People Renewed my Hope in the Gospel. Her Bible studies have also been used by Beth Moore, a Bible study teacher and founder of Life Proof Ministries.

In addition to writing, Minter has recorded several albums. Her most recent record is Hymns & Hallelujahs, which was released in September. Minter also recently launched the event Cultivate: A Women’s Gathering Around the World, which works to bring women together through Bible study, prayer, mission and worship.

“The invitation to be on a mission with God, both here and abroad, is one of the greatest in my life,” Minter said.

Proceeds from the Scholarship Luncheon go toward scholarships for students with significant financial need and challenging circumstances. 

The luncheon is open to the public, the cost is $50, and $25 of that cost is tax deductible. Reservations can be made at samford.edu/legacyleague now through Jan. 22. For more information, visit the website or call 726-2247.
