Learn at Emmanuel
Seekers
Tuesdays | 8:00 - 9:00 a.m.
Seekers at Emmanuel are a community of people who read, watch and listen … to stimulate thinking and provide a basis for conversation to explore and exchange ideas. We meet every Tuesday morning from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. in Emmanuel’s Parish House. Our broad objective is to explore what it means to be human, and within that to improve our knowledge, appreciation and respect of the religions, cultures and tribes that we share the planet with. We also explore the distinctions within and between Christianity and other religions. Books and readings selected by the group often form the basis for discussion on a wide range of topics. A recurring subject is the intersection of religion and science.
All who share an interest in the human condition and are able to engage in conversation at 8:00 am are welcome to attend. For more information, please email the church office or:

Knowledge and understanding from science; Insight and vision from poetry, Joy and ecstasy from music, Love and warmth from relationships, Laughter and mirth from humor, Inner peace and spiritual fulfillment from religion—All because we are conscious beings. We receive a little of each during a slice of temporal eternity in the patch of space wherein we live and die. For this, I am grateful to the Unfathomable Mystery to whose existence, evolution and cultural upbringing have made me sensitive.
