Exploring, Growing Together forum learning discussions will continue with a summer session to be held on Thursdays, June 10 and 24, at Lititz United Methodist Church, 201 E. Market St., Lititz, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. in Room 103 on the lower level.
Attendees will gather indoors to view the films "The Hiding Place" and "Return to the Hiding Place." Discussion may take place outside in the pavilion, weather permitting, on June 24. The books on which the movies were based can be read prior to the gatherings, if desired.
The book "The Hiding Place" is an autobiographical memoir by Corrie ten Boom, a Christian who lived in Haarlem, Netherlands, during the Nazi occupation and who, with her family, rescued Jewish neighbors. "Return to the Hiding Place" tells of Hans Poley's experiences during the Holocaust, which included hiding at the ten Booms' house and joining the Dutch Resistance to fight the Nazis.
Attendees may bring a lunch to eat during the discussions. No food or beverages may be shared due to the pandemic, and no beverages are available in the lobby or water fountains in the building at this time. Masks must be worn to enter the building.
Readers may contact Linda at 717-626-0745 or raven303@ptd.net for a copy of COVID-19 guidelines, as well as for information on registration and on the series, which aims to offer a safe learning environment in which to discuss and explore topics and beliefs. Additionally, due to the possibility of changes, those who plan to attend are advised to confirm with Linda before the program.
The June series will conclude the regular season schedule, and meetings will resume in September.
