Announcements by Amanda

Amanda gives you a couple announcements and a reflection on how social media can affect the way in which we relate to beauty.

Join us for a meditation on his sermon “The Mystery of Divine Condescension” (you can read it online here: http://www.newmanreader.org/works/discourses/discourse14.html ).
