Saturday night at 7:30 (June 11)

we have a really special speaker, Lyla June Johnstone, an internationally recognized performance poet.

Regeneration: Transforming Pain and Trauma into Hope and Power

After many years of abuse and addiction, Johnston embarked on a path of healing rooted in compassion, truth, faith and action. Just as the forests use the ashes of a forest fire to nourish the seeds and shoots of the next generation, so too can we use the adversity our communities face to transform the world and give our people hope.
