The discussions will touch on the religions’ place in American society and how they should use that place to reflect the prophetic, theological voice on these three issues with additional comment from community leaders. Poverty: Tuesday, March 20,  5:30 at the Library; Peace: Tuesday, April 24, 5:30 at Hartford Public Library; Planet Earth: Wednesday, June 6, 6:30 at Charter Oak.  You can register for the entire series or individual discussions.
