Violence and Faith-
Dec. 7th Following Worship
 
 In this time of polarization, of "fight or flight", non-violence offers a third path to emotional, spiritual or physical violence. It begins with being non-violent to ourselves, our families and friends, and moves to others from there. Its power is in enabling us to express our own point of view without violating the other.
Our presenter will be Victoria Christgau, founder and president of the organization. She will speak of the basic tenets of non-violence and engage in conversation about this important subject. A free will offering will be taken to offset the cost of lunch.
