Rosalie Serving Italian

Posted by: Denelle


Rosalie Harpole has served as a pastor's wife for 32 years, earned a degree in nursing and written a cookbook detailing her famous Italian recepies.

Rosalie Serving Italian has now opened many doors and brought many opportunities her way that most Apostolics don't experience. At the end of July she had an interview with the Post Dispatch and on August 10, 2007, she appeared on St. Louis channel 5's, Show Me St. Louis.

She graciously agreed to answer a few questions about her appearance exclusively for Collideoscope.

Collidescope: What is this show (Show Me St. Louis) about?

RFH: The TV show is about cooking and local authors. The segment was approximately 4 minutes and I was able to cook a dish on the air.

Collidescope: How were you treated? Did they zip you in and out or did you get to talk to the hosts?

RFH: My husband and I were treated very kindly. They took great care to show us all that would happend during the segment. When it was over five of the people who had talked to us, rushed in to say, "We can not believe you have never been on TV before, you were wonderful." They spoke to us for some time after the segment and have invited me back in September and possibly in October.

Collidescope: Was there any discussion about your background or beliefs?

RFH: There was some discussion about my background but the only thing about our beliefs that was mentioned was the fact that my husband has pastored a Pentecostal Church for over 32 years.

Collidescope: Have you had any other witnessing opportunities or cool moments at your book signings. Have you had any other PR opportunities that have grown out of this appearance?

RFH: Each and every signing that I have, I am able to speak to people about Godly attitudes and family values. Various people are starting to see me and tell me that they saw me on this program. It is opening up other doors as Channel 5 is a "big deal" in some people's minds. It is hard to tell at this point if larger opportunities will grow out of this appearance.

You can see Rosalie's segment on KSDK HERE and get the receipe for the pasta dish she made HERE. Additionally, on August 17, she appeared on The Valley Showcase with Julie Hendricks (the link for Rosalie Serving Italian is about 1/2 way down the page).

I wonder if that's Jeff Harpole's mom (Jeff pastors in Terre Haute, IN).

The very one...

I have been enjoying Rosalie's cook book over the last few weeks. It has great recipes and great entertainment value as well. I'm glad to see she's getting a lot of news coverage - it really is news worthy!
