Trinity Forum: Raoul Smith on Trinity's Icons

Trinity Episcopal Church in Concord invites you to its Sunday morning Adult Forum, Trinity's adult education program, which meets weekly at 9 AM to hear speakers sharing their experiences on one of six themes — word, worship, wonder, world, witness, work — each being an important aspect connecting faith with everyday life.  Trinity's complete Forum schedule is available at http://trinityconcord.org/forum.shtml.

On Sunday, January 6, our Forum presentation focuses on Wonder with David Dae An Rynick, author, life and leadership ciach and Zen master. David will read from his recently published collection of all too human anecdotes and reflections, /This Truth Never Fails,/ in which he tries to apply the ancient teachings of Zen to his everyday life. David’s coaching clients include religious leaders from several different faith traditions and he has been working closely with the Episcopal House of Bishops as creator and lead trainer of their peer-coaching program since 2005. David is a former professional potter and private school headmaster. He is now Abbot of the Boundless Way Zen Temple in Worcester, Massachusetts wher ehe is co-resident teacher along with his wife, Melissa Myozen Blacker.

Trinity's invited Forum speakers come from many walks of life and have addressed all manner of topics -- serious, mysterious, personal and world-focussed. Among our recent topics are pilgrimage, faith lost and found, histories and Biblical persons, death, dying and grieving, parenting, stewardship, education, and much more.

Childcare begins in Trinity's nursery at 9 AM; Trinity's buildings are fully accessible.  For further information on this or other programs at Trinity, please call our Parish Office, 978/369-3715, or visit us online at http://www.trinityconcord.org.
