Our final Diakonia course for this year, “Christianity in a Lutheran Key” begins Thursday, April 27. While all Christians share a common set of theological beliefs, Lutherans look at things through a filter of grace.  In this course we will discover more about our Lutheran roots. We will also look forward to challenges that face us in the future. Tuition cost is $40 for the 5 week course. Classes meet on Zoom, Thursdays at 6:30 pm. Speak to Deacon Bob if you are interested.
