Liturgical Mysteries Evening

An Evening of Desserts & Liturgical Mysteries

with Mark Schweizer

Sunday, May 4, 7:00 pm in Trinity Hall

St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Durham

presented in conjunction with St. Philip Lutheran in Raleigh

St. Germaine is a little like Lake Wobegon, Garrison Keillor's fictional hometown. Except that St. Germaine is in western North Carolina and it has a recurring problem with murders. They are solved by Hayden Konig, whose role as detective/chief of police is supplemented by his other role -- organist and choir director for St. Barnabus Episcopal Church. Who knew that so many crimes could have a liturgical connection?

 

Whether or not you've had a chance to read The Alto Wore Tweed or any of Mark Schweizer's other books in our library, you'll enjoy this evening of conversation, music, and dramatic reading.

 

You are invited to bring a dessert which will be shared by all in attendance. If you need a ride, please contact the church office.
