PW DENVER BIBLE STUDY SEMINAR

Presbyterian Women in the Presbytery of Denver will hold their annual Bible Study Seminar on Saturday, August 3, 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. with the place to be announced. The Rev. Bill Sanders, retired pastor and pulpit supply, will lead us in an introduction to the 2024-2025 HORIZONS Bible Study: Let Justice Roll Down: God’s Call to Care for Neighbors and All Creation by Patricia K. Tull. Suggestions for Leaders are by Rebecca Barnes The author describes her call for creation justice in this way: “When I first learned of the climate crisis, I wondered how a biblical scholar with few practical skills could help and found my purpose in learning about ecology and teaching people of faith what I could. Such is not everyone’s skillset or desire, but each of us has something to do with all our hearts.”
