Lenten Series Update
March/April 2011
Greetings!

The schedule for the Lenten Series has shifted slightly.  This Wednesday, the theme is "The Gospel of Openness", featuring the Rev. Chris Bell, pastor of the Unitarian-Universalist congregation across the street from us.   

 

Fr. Matt and the Rev. Bell with discuss the question of different religions and how they play a role in the spiritual life.  They have different views on this topic, so the discussion should be interesting.  We will then engage the whole group in the discussion, listening deeply to one another's stories - especially for the ways in which the Gospel speaks to us through this question.  Supper at 6, Discussion at 7:00!   

 

See full series schedule below. Come join us!
