Calvary Conversations

Wednesdays at 6:15 p.m. in the Bethlehem Chapel

 

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a chance to talk to people in real life about the things that are on our hearts and minds? We’ll host a series of guided-but-casual conversations with people doing good and meaningful work in our community. Each week will address a different topic, and we’ll be sharing stories and offering guidance to help all of us navigate our days.
