Give Refuge to the Stranger

6:00 pm9:30 pm
William Penn House (Washington, DC)

Linda Rabben (Adelphi Friends Meeting) will discuss her book, Give Refuge to the Stranger: The Past, Present and Future of Sanctuary for the September William Penn House potluck. Linda will walk us through the long histories of sanctuary as a religious institution and asylum as a secular legal institution. The monthly potluck is on a Sunday of each month at 6:30pm, and the program starts at 7:30. This is an opportunity for fellowship among Quakers, attenders and fellow seekers. Bring a dish to share; family members, neighbors and friends are always welcome.
