Guest speaker, coming February 2nd

 

By 'happenstance', Dan Lucarini and I spoke today, both of us at a social function; he just took a new job in December, out of state, but will be travelling every other week to that job...but good news: he is scheduled to speak to our class on Thurs, Feb 2nd.  It will be a great night of fellowship and discussion!  We have preliminaries that are usual to our class structure that we'll observe before he comes...

Privileged to be your instructor,

Pastor Troy Self
