Sunday, April 19 · 12:00 PM
Assembly Room, Nassau Presbyterian Church
Join us for a Lunch-and-Learn with Rev. Jimmie R. Hawkins, Director of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) Office of Public Witness in Washington, D.C. The Office of Public Witness works to bring the voice of the church to the public square, advocating for justice, compassion, and faithful engagement with the issues facing our communities and nation.
Rev. Hawkins will share about the work and witness of the Office of Public Witness and reflect on how the church participates in public life through advocacy, service, and prayer. There will be time for conversation and questions following his presentation.
Earlier that morning, Rev. Hawkins will preach at Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church at their 10:00 AM worship service. Afterward, all are welcome to gather at Nassau for lunch and conversation.
A simple lunch will be provided in the Assembly Room of Nassau Presbyterian Church. There is no charge for the meal; those who wish may make a small contribution to help offset the cost.
Books by Rev. Hawkins will be available for purchase and signing:
-
Unbroken and Unbowed: A History of Black Protest -
The Shaping of Black Identities
These books will be available for $20 each.
We welcome members of Nassau Presbyterian Church, Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church, and the wider community to join us for this opportunity to meet Rev. Hawkins and learn more about the church’s public witness.
