Girls' Friendly Society

Our next session will be held on  

Sunday, December 7th at 11:30am in the Pine Room.

Lunch will be served.

- If you have not yet submitted the $25 dues for your daughter, please do so at your earliest convenience.

We look forward to seeing you on December 7th!

Can we question many of the things we've been taught about God and Jesus and still be Christians? Can we challenge traditional interpretations of the Bible and find a spiritually meaningful understanding? If so, what might such a fresh understanding of the Scripture look like?

This discussion group will explore these questions and more. Using short readings from contemporary, "progressive" theologians, atheists, and others who challenge the status quo of Christian interpretation as our starting place, we will consider, contemplate, and debate. No knowledge of scripture or theology needed and All of this will take place in the context of a friendly beer together at Molly McGuire's in Rumson.

The discussion will be facilitated by both clergy and laity from St. George's-by-the-River Episcopal Church in Rumson, but anyone in the community is warmly invited to participate. Whatever spiritual perspective you represent - "traditional" Christian, another faith, no faith, "spiritual but not religious" or whatever - we would love to have you join us.

Please contact Jeff Roy or Joel Rogers for more information.
