Conversations on Race. As the Advocate community continues to explore

our world, the People of the Advocate are invited to participate in 
three Conversations on Race this Easter Season. Groups will meet in 
Advocate host homes at a time and day convenient to all to share 
experiences and perspectives. Some may share a potluck supper, or 
will include child care for kids. Please sign up at Church or by 
email to: Tom Fisher For further information 
contact: Sissy Holloman, Tom Fisher or Frank Lombard.

The First Conversation: How we experienced race growing up, will be 
held at the home of Sissy and William Holloman. Monday April 30, 6:30 
- 8:00 PM. Bring a dish to share as you are able. Child care provided.

The Second Conversation: how we experience race in our workplace, 
school, community or family today. Location(s) and date to be 
determined.

The Third Conversation: How we might bring justice, compassion and 
transformation to bear as we confront racism in our community and 
world. Location(s) and date to be determined.

Christ is Risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and 
upon those in the tomb bestowing life! (The Easter Troparian.)

Go with God.
