from scripture, theology, and the deepest insights of mystics,
philosophers,
and sages throughout history, Richard Rohr (with Mike Morrell) presents a

All-Given to
you and me. Contact tomcox4444@yahoo.com.
Fixing PA's Gerrymandering Crisis // TONIGHT @ 7PM // main hall // Fair Districts PA
speaker Timothy Verstynen will outline the problems related to PA's
redistricting process; demonstrate how that process undermines
democracy, and then discuss a proposed solution to the problem. FDPA is a
nonpartisan coalition of citizens and organizations that seeks to
reform PA's redistricting rules by taking the process out
of the hands of party leaders and putting that process into the hands
of a citizens commission that would be impartial, transparent and
accountable. Contact lauren.wolcott@gmail.com.
