There was a Abraham's Table Luncheon at College of Saint Elizabeth on Wednesday, July 7 at 12:45 pm.
Join us for a time of instruction and reflection -- and some delicious Turkish food! -- as we examine the treasured place of the Psalms in each of the Abrahamic traditions. The Psalms speak as both poetry and prayer -- prayers of praise, thanks, and petition; prayers of sorrow, lament, and even anger. How can the Psalms serve as a lens for examing what we believe about our God and how we approach in prayer a God who is for us?
Home-made food and Turkish Coffee will be served. Q&A will follow the speeches.
