Beacon Hill Friends House presents...
Where do you find God?
the Weed Memorial Lecture
Trayce Peterson
Rescheduled!

Where do you find God? Is there a sacred or holy place that nurtures
your spirituality? Who are the people and where are the spaces where
you feel most whole? Sometimes we don’t feel safe; is there a place
you turn to for refuge? Trayce Peterson will share stories and
reflect on the importance of sanctuary and sacred places within
community.
