Simplicity Circle  – "Food & Faith" is the new Simplicity Circle curricula that examines our food choices through the lens of faith. We will explore food as a sacramental spiritual practice and consider the impact of food choices on the earth. Meetings will be held on the first and third Fridays starting August 1. Our new Director of Faith Development, Schuyler Vogel will help facilitate. This course is a fantastic way to start the new 4 year Study Action Issue “Ethical Eating: Food and Environmental Justice” just chosen at General Assembly. Sign up after service, see the Program Table during the Hospitality Hour.
