The July 26th Service is focused on the experience of “white privilege” and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. The facilitators have been meeting monthly this past year as a study group. Members include Joyce Dowling, Gary Honeman, Mary Lou Malone, Carol Meredith and Vicky Dowling. The group will engage the congregation with civil rights music, a children’s story, personal experiences and a little “conversational” task coming from the congregation. Please join us for a special morning of shared experience and personal growth!
