DELAWARE VALLEY SUMMER INSTITUTE 2015:  THERE IS NO DISABILITY IN PRAISING GOD
Disability is a reality that touches all our lives, whether in our personal experience or that of our friends and neighbors. How do we make sense of a loving, caring God that includes people with disabilities?  Joel Estes from Princeton Seminary will guide us through these questions thinking Biblically about disabilities and allowing us to be blessed by sharing our lives with those in our families, and in our churches,  who are challenged physically and intellectually.    

 

All talks start at 7PM. Light refreshments to follow.

 

Sunday    2 Aug:    Lambertville

Tuesday   4 Aug:    Stockton
