“Learn the Basics” is an educational presentation that is meant to offer an abundance of information on this discernment process and why we are in it. This presentation will be given by members of our discernment team who have spent lots of time, some even years, with this information. We are offering two dates for the “Learn the Basics” presentation. Both will have the same content, so you don’t have to attend both.

At the end of the presentation, you will be given the opportunity to submit questions to be answered at the panel discussion. We won’t be taking questions during the “Learn the Basics” presentation. Its sole purpose is to inform and educate.
