From Steve Gruenewald, director of Adult Education:
Folks –
As usual, summer is upon us before we’re ready for it. At the small gathering we had last Sunday, the group was not inclined to completely stop meeting until Fall if we can work it out; but of course we know that people have vacations, and regular weekend activities, and most are not likely to show up every week. A suggestion was made that we try to meet every third Sunday – that is, meet once, skip twice – at 9:00, before the summer Mass. We would start doing this the week after Father’s Day, June 24 – with the conflicting schedules we already knew of, that seemed like a reasonable date to shoot for.
This is all tentative. Please reply if you are interested in attending over the summer on some such schedule (including those who were there last week), and especially please reply if you’d be generally interested in attending but would like to suggest a different way of going about it (day, night, frequency, etc.). We are open to whatever will suit the most people. Look at your calendars and let me know. The suggested schedule would include June 24, July 15, August 5 and 26, but again, we are open to other ideas. Whatever we decide on, it will change if there is a consensus of active members.
For those who weren’t there, we have wrapped up the discussion of Hinduism and would like next to spend our next session talking about Native American religions. No one has volunteered for this topic. If no one else does, I will prepare the information, but if anyone has an interest in it, please speak up! We are not going to spend a lot of time on this section, so you needn’t consider it a major research project.
