For Lent and the Easter Season, The Thursday Women’s Bible Study will seek wisdom and light  in Ladder to the Light: An Indigenous Elder’s Meditations on Hope and Courage:

Native America knows something about cultivating resilience and resisting darkness. Steven Charleston offers words of hard-won hope, rooted in daily conversations with the Spirit and steeped in indigenous wisdom. For all who yearn for hope, Ladder to the Light is a book of comfort, truth, and challenge in a time of anguish and fear.

Former presiding bishop Michael Curry says, “Here is wisdom born out of a lifetime of listening faithfully to the voices of God. Here is wisdom we need for the living of these days.

++Rev. Steven Charleston is retired Episcopal Bishop of Alaska, former dean and president of the Episcopal Divinity School, and an elder in the Choctaw nation.

We meet on Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. in the Library at the Maple Street location.

Books will be available for purchase in the church office, but come even if you haven’t had the chance to read in advance! Our discussions, led by the Rev. Dr. Gloria Hopewell, are always lively and thought-provoking! We also stream the sessions on Zoom.

For questions or other information, please contact The Rev. Dr. Gloria Hopewell.
