Finding Community & Being Known

I grew up in a small town of about 1,200 people in rural Northwestern Wisconsin. There are no stoplights or shopping centers; no freeways or light pollution. There is a Dollar General, a few churches, a few bars, and a long brick school that is the only school I set foot in from Kindergarten until the day I graduated, sometime in May, 2011.
