The Sac City Library is hosting author Shari Peterson at the First Christian Church later this week. Peterson was raised on a rural Iowa farm and witnessed her parents demonstrate the small-town helping others’ philosophy. In February 1989, Peterson experienced the unbelievable when an in-air flight event left her dangling thousands of feet above the ocean floor. Following the life-altering event of United 811, she began her quest to understand her own life and started traveling and sharing her experiences. Peterson has appeared on Oprah, Turning Point, Hard Copy, and more. The event begins at 6:30 with a light reception, and Peterson will start speaking at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, August 11. The church is located at 521 Park Ave. in Sac City. For more information on the presentation, individuals can contact the Sac City Library at 712-662-7276.
