Tattoos on the Heart
by Gregory Boyle
A Congregational Book Study
Thursday, February 20th 6:30- 8:30 PM
Mark your calendars for Thursday, February 20, for a discussion of
Tattoos on the Heart
by Father Greg Boyle, to prepare us for his Willard Lecture in March.
“There is a quote from his book that is a snapshot of what we can learn from Father Boyle,” said Adult Formation Director Garrell Keesler. “The quote is,
‘Kinship—not serving the other, but being one with the other. Jesus was not a ‘ man for others’; he was one with them. There is a world of difference in that.’”
Everyone in the congregation is invited to read this book and participate in the discussion, which will be offsite from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Contact the
Reverend Robert Galloway
with questions about the book study.
