A Celebration of the Life’s Work of Dennis Carlson & Beulah Downing

THIS SUNDAY

Immediately following the 9:30 service on Sunday, June 16, we will celebrate beloved Grace parishioners, Dennis Carlson and Beulah Downing.  Dennis and Beulah will speak about their years in Ethiopia and also discuss his newly published memoir, Scalpel, Spirit and Seeds: My Life Promoting Health in Ethiopia and around the World. The book may be purchased here, and some copies will be available at the June 16 event.

Coffee Hour will feature tastes of Ethiopian food (as well as the usual array of sweets and savories), which can be taken into the sanctuary for Dennis and Beulah’s presentation, including readings from his memoir and ample time for Q & A.  We’ll finish by noon to allow time for any Father’s Day festivities!
