Open University Presenter Changes on Mondays
There have been a few changes to the schedule on Mondays at St. Luke:
The Lunch Speaker on Monday, October 3, at 12:30 at St. Luke Lutheran, will be Dr. David Mark Cooper, author of Mapping Your Adventure: Discovering Integrity in a Life Review. Dr. Cooper is a respected therapist and educator, who lives in Richmond. He takes the place of Randy Fitzgerald, well-known columnist and humorist, who will be unable to speak because of illness. Dr. Cooper will bring copies of his book, should his listeners wish to purchase it at the end of his talk.
Ellis West will present The Constitution’s Ban on Religious Tests for Holding Public Office on October 17 and Andrew Crislip will conclude his presentation with The Lost Gospels II on October 24. Both are at 11:00 a.m.
Shantaram Talegaonkar will present Seven Delhis: The Evolution of a City Over One Thousand Years on October 24 and Barbara Goehle will present The Amazing Victoria Falls on November 7. Both are at 9:45.
