Practicing Compassion
by Frank Rogers

Pastor’s Class

Wednesdays @ 7:00 – 8:00 pm
via Zoom

CANCELLED

Led by Doug Gebhard, Interim Pastor

Partcipants will learn compassion is more than a sympathetic feeling, it is the bond of human connection.  Most religions lift up compassion, yet few people actually teach how to practice it.  Through rich and moving stories of people from various faiths, the author shows ways to incorporate compassion in our daily lives.  His interfaith perspective on mercy, kindness and caring for one another trains us to Pay attention, Understand emphathically, Love with connection, Sense the sacredness, and Embody new life (PULSE).

Limited copies of the book are available at no charge by contacting the church office while supplies last.

Join us for six (6) Wednesday evenings @ 7 pm ET this fall via Zoom.  Questions can be directed to the church office at office@trinitywexford.org.
