Adult Bible Study before worship, 9-10am in the East classroom. Rev David Vasquez Levy, President of Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley, gave a Bible study at the Synod Assembly in El Paso last spring, called “Out of the Waters: Resisting the Power of Fear.” This study helps us get to know the characters in Exodus as fully human beings rather than “holy heroes” and relates their experiences to the issues of migration today. Come join this 6 week study at any time! For more info:  Jean S and Regina R.
