This Sunday, we will hear from Kate Spelman, and Episcopal priest in the Diocese of Chicago. After a decade of congregational ministry, she recently returned to the secular world where she creates programming and resources for older LGBTQ+ adults and caregivers. |

| WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE? St. Luke’s leadership is looking towards fall and starting to plan for more small group events either in person or online. Let Helen know what you would be interested in helping with or attending! JULY BOOK STUDY: UPROOTING RACISM We encourage you to read the book “Uprooting Racism: How White People Can Work for Racial Justice” by Paul Kivel and then join a discussion group by Zoom on Monday, July 27 from 7:00-8:30. The book is available using Durham Library’s Hoopla app, or by using your Nook, Kindle or free Kindle app. After each chapter, answer: 1) What did I learn/what was new to me? 2) What do I want to know, 3) How am I feeling about what I read? Contact Eileen Morgan for more information, and to let her know you plan to read/attend. |
