Small Plates Continues

In a restaurant a small plate is a little taste of a dish.  We are offering a small plate of adult education in December.
 
The topic is: "How the Bible became a book: What was included, what was left out and why".
 
The tastes will be offered Sunday December 13, & 20 from 9:15 to 9:45 in the parish hall.
