Are you looking for a memorable presentation emphasizing the sanctity of life ... all life? Julie has designed a program specifically for religious institutions and schools. It is a nondenominational approach to understanding how our world works and the precious life forms that are part of our earthly family. The roles plants and animals play are emphasized as well as our role--as stewards of all of God's critters. Respect, responsibility and spiritual celebration are concepts that are taught in a fun and interactive program lasting from 30 to 45 minutes. A variety of animals from around the world will entertain and educate the audience as well as strengthen the bonds we share.
Julie has presented her programs to congregations, parishes and synagogues throughout California and the Midwest. She is a popular speaker at church schools and was the featured speaker at the Lutheran Conference on Early Childhood Education. She has been a regular presenter at numerous Sunday school classes and has participated in church fundraising events and bazaars. Her own faith journey has been the driving force in challenging people to look differently at this wonderfully diverse world we have been blessed with!
Important jobs on our planet are performed by the most unusual animals. The soil makers, seed planters, pollinators, and predators will teach the audience how balance in nature is an integral part of God's plan. Diversity and respect are celebrated in this engaging program featuring animals (invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals) from around the world.
An introduction to different types of animals and how they raise their young. Kids will meet invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals and learn that they are all an important part of God's plan.

Thank you so much for your wonderful presentation! I heard from several teachers (and children) how much they enjoyed it, and how informative and entertaining you (and your critters) were. I certainly appreciated it (as did they) and look forward to asking you again!

Thank you so much for an excellent program. The students and staff have talked of nothing else. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect ending to our Catholic Schools Week theme "All God's Critters". Your message about God's plan for all of us was appreciated. Our children cannot hear this too often.

Thank you so much for your willingness to lead an interest group at "Fellowship For All". Your presentations continue to be one of the most popular groups we have at this event. I especially appreciate your enthusiasm for young children in making this presentation lively for them. We hope you will come back and join us again soon.
