We have just learned from Dressel’s that we will have to take a hiatus from Theology on Tap this month. Dressel’s will be closed on Tuesday as they work on some construction projects. They should have their project all wrapped up within a week or two, so we will be back. Stay tuned for an announcement of the February speaker. We will plan to meet again on Tuesday February 2nd.
On Tuesday night, The Rev. Mike Angell and Ellis Anderson will lead us in Christmas and Advent Trivia. Get your teams together to compete for fabulous prizes. There will be questions about Christmas movies, music, along with Church history and stories about how we ended up celebrating the Incarnation in such a strange manner.

​Theology on Tap​ gather​s​ on the first Tuesday of each month for good food and good conversation.
Tonight as part of our discussion of the Afterlife, Angels, Demons, All Saints and All Souls, we’ll be building a simple Dia De Los Muertos altar. The tradition comes from Latin America, when the beginning of November is marked by remembering loved ones. If you are able to do so, please bring a photo, a favorite candy, or a stuffed animal, anything that reminds you of someone you loved who has died. You can also bring sugar skulls and fun Dia De Los Muertos decorations if you have them.
On Tuesday November 3 our topic is Life after Death: All Saints, All Souls, Angels and Demons. The discussion will be led by​The Rev. Mike Angell, rector of Holy Communion. We’ll talk about Halloween, the Dia De Los Muetros in Latin America, Exorcism, and Christian ideas of the afterlife.
