Fellowship of Reconciliation


Friends,

This is a reminder to join Dr. Diane Goodman and your friends and neighbors for the third and final workshop in the three part series Exploring What it Means to Be White.

Participants in the first two workshops said, "I really appreciate the warm and honest style." "So clear, concise and relevant." "Enlightening."

It's not too late to join the discussion. Anyone can come to the next workshop -- it isn't necessary to have attended the first two in the series.

Workshop 3, Feb. 8th: this Sunday!
