On June 26th the Christian Education Committee will be hosting its second seminar of the year. The war in Ukraine has heightened our awareness of the plight and hardships of Ukrainian refugees, but in reality, there are many refugee crises throughout the world that we do not hear about. We are pleased to have the Refugees Ministry Coordinator for RCA Global Mission, JJ Ten Clay, speak to us about her mission work with refugees and how as Christians our faith and bible teachings call us to help. JJ's presentation is entitled "A Tale of Four Women". She will share stories of four women who have faced displacement and set off on harrowing journeys to find refuge.
Lunch will be served right after the Sunday service - a sign-up sheet is available on the Action Table. We hope you will join us for this informative presentation and discussion!

Presentation Title: “A Tale of Four Women”
Join JJ as she shares the stories of four women who have faced forced displacement and set off on harrowing journeys to find refuge.
