APRIL 17 (Tuesday)
Paul’s Letters to the Galatians and the Philippians with Jan Fletcher
ends

The letter to the Galatians has been called one of the most important documents of early Christianity. In it Paul forcefully defends his proclamation of the Gospel, and
what the letter lacks in length it surely makes up for in theological argumentation and fury! His letter to the Philippians, on the other hand, reveals a different Paul , a man who writes affectionately to the Christians at Philippi and who inspires the devotion and love of those he evangelizes. In these two brief letters we experience the faith and commitment, the gentleness and the passion of the man who is Paul of Tarsus. Join us as we get to know Paul better!

Tuesdays: Jan. 24; Feb. 7 & 21; March 6 & 20; Apr. 3 & 17
Time: 9:30 – 11:30 a.m.
Cost: $75 per person [$40 for additional family member]
Cost includes a $20 nonrefundable registration fee [$10 for an additional family member]

address, email address, and phone number. For more information call Jan at 248.569.2802, or email Jan at Scripturewithjan@yahoo.com
