In the hope of helping our community move towards more civil discourse, St. Stephen’s Church, on the Green in Middlebury presents two upcoming events.

Sunday, March 23, 9:00AM: Real Listening Workshop. As theologian Paul Tillich said, "The first duty of love is to listen." In this Sunday morning workshop we'll talk about what it takes to listen--really listen--and then we'll practice it. Devon Jersild facilitates. In the upstairs meeting room. Enter on the right side of the church.

Tuesday, March 25, 7:00PM: Faith and Friendship: Pillars for Small-Town Civility. A lecture by James Davis, Professor of Religion, Middlebury College. Prof. Davis is nationally known for his study, publications and lectures about civil discourse. Reception follows. Co-sponsored by St. Stephen’s Church and the Middlebury Area Clergy Association.

All are welcome. Both events are free.
