The Spring Gathering Program to Feature Girl Talk, God Talk
All women are invited to a program hosted by the Presbyterian Women circles on Wednesday, April 7 at 7:30 p.m. The speaker will be Dr. Joyce Mercer, Professor of Pastoral Theology at Virginia Theological Seminary. The topic will be Girl Talk, God Talk: Why Faith Matters to Teenage Girls and Their Parents.
