Adult Forum
Conversations about faith, life, politics, justice, art, ethics, and theology.
Welcome to Adult Forum.
Adult Forum is a conversation at Holy Communion about faith, life, justice, arts and culture.
Join us Sundays at 9 a.m. in Mitchell Hall as we enjoy breakfast and explore scripture, culture, and study.
Child care is available in the nursery for those who wish.
Children are welcome to stay with their caregivers during the program if desired.
