Sunday forums take place at 10:00 A.M. in the Plaza Room of Saint Peter's Church.

Forums feature lively and open discussions about scripture, current issues and other topics of interest. In an effort to build understanding, awareness and appreciation of a variety of ways of speaking about God, forums often take on the perspectives of multiple faiths and traditions.

Conversations are led by a pastor, a person from Saint Peter's Church sharing experience or expertise, and outside speakers, often integrating art and literature.

All are welcome.
