ARCHITECTS, Rm. B1 – Lilaha has brought in 2 speakers these past Sundays

that have given us so much information to think about. Last Sunday I can’t tell

you about all Scott & Tamy Wagner brought to us concerning their Jewish relig-

ion. Their 2 girls sang songs used at Passover and Scott gave us background on

their religion. It was great & enlightening. Many thanks to Scott & his family.

Today we had a wonderful speaker, Sandy Hysom, on “true Colors”. Her topic

opened up lots of ideas that cause us to examine our beliefs & personality. What

a marvelous idea and we thank Sandy so much! We are sorry to hear of Corinne

Way’s passing. She was a part of our class for a long time before moving to the

west side. What an enjoyable class we had!
