Sunday, October 23 2022- “Cakes for the Queen of Heaven” is a woman honoring adult RE curriculum by Rev. Shirley Ranck. It examines pre-Judeo Christian cultures that may have worshiped the female as divine. The concepts of equality and reverence for the female in a religious setting are eye-opening to many participants. Nicole Tolbert will provide an overview to the group and we will discuss if the women in our Fellowship would want to delve more deeply into the curriculum in the future.
