Most of us are aware of the rise in acts of racism, discrimination and hate crimes in our state and nationally. St. Gabriel’s is beginning discussions to better understand and respond to this trend. We extend the invitation to participate in an evening of conversation based on Debby Irving’s book Waking Up White: Finding Myself in the Story of Race on Sunday evening, March 1, 6:30 pm at St. Gabriel’s Parish Hall 124 Front Street, Marion. A limited number of books are available at the church for $18. For more information, please contact St. Gabriel’s 508-748-1507 or stgabrielsmarion@gmail.com.
