Online Adult Religious Education — 19 November 2023 (online using Zoom for this week only)

Please join us on Sunday (19 November 2023) for our adult religious education class at 9:00 AM.

We will continue reading the UUA Common Read for 2023 — On Repentance and Repair by Rabbi Damya Ruttenberg.

The book looks back to the 12th Century Jewish philosopher Maimonides as a guide to an authentic process for offering a real apology and making amends.

This Sunday we will discuss Chapter 6 (“Justice Systems, or, What Consequences for Harm?”).
