St. Anne’s Episcopal Church's Parish Hall, 199 Duke of Gloucester Street, Annapolis, Md.

According to Matthew 19:24, “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.”

St. Anne's Episcopal Church’s Eastertide Adult Forum about navigating difficult conversations continues on May 10 when St. Anne’s rector, the Rev. Manoj Mathew Zacharia, Ph.D., uses Matthew 19:16-26 as a guide in a discussion about money.

In the two final sessions of the series, Maria Winters, a licensed clinical professional counselor, will facilitate a discussion on Christian hope on May 17, and Colleen Cruikshank, of the Constructive Dialogue Institute, will equip attendees with tools for discussing religion and politics on May 24. Both will use passages from the Gospel of Matthew as their guide.

Join these theological discussions on May 10, 17 and 24 at 11:30 a.m. at the church<a href="https://maps.google.com/maps?z=10&amp;t=m&amp;q=St.%20Anne%27s%20Parish,%20199%20Duke%20of%20Gloucester%20St,%20Annapolis,%20MD,%2021401" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">'s Parish Hall, 199 Duke of Gloucester St., Annapolis, M</a>d.

Zoom Meeting

Annapolis today stands as a testament to its many layers of history, with four centuries of buildings standing side by side throughout the city. In honor of preservation month, this talk highlights&nbsp;Annapolis’&nbsp;architectural landscape&nbsp;in the 1700s.&nbsp; 
The years prior to the Revolutionary War were a time of vast economic growth and opportunity encompassing all levels of Annapolis society. The changing urban landscape reflected the dramatic rise of new&nbsp;buildings&nbsp;creating distinct areas of commercial, speculative, and private spheres. In her richly illustrated lecture, Marcia Miller explores the many connections between the built environment and those who lived, worked, and labored in pre-Revolutionary Annapolis.
The Historic Annapolis Virtual Lecture Series is offered free of charge thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor. If you enjoy this program, we hope you will consider&nbsp;<a href="https://www.annapolis.org/membership" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">becoming a member</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.annapolis.org/donate" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">making a donation</a>&nbsp;today to support Historic Annapolis and our mission to connect all people with our shared history.&nbsp;
Can’t watch live? All lectures will be recorded. Please register and you’ll receive the link to watch the recording after the event.
Advance registration required; registration closes on half-hour prior to lecture.&nbsp;
