This class follows the evolution of humanity from location to the ways we spread out over the planet. During this Lenten season, we stop to pause and ask where the Spirit is calling each of us, individually as well as communally, into space where we live in the space of who God is and who were created to be.
Invite anyone you think might want to participate. And it will also be available virtually. Let Danny know if you’re interested in participating or have any questions.
