“Knowing and Hearing the Stories,” an inner-church dialogue, will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 27, at Bluffton First Mennonite Church.

The dialogue is a response to a request from the Maumee Valley Presbytery to hear stories of Anabaptists and Catholics, as they observes the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, “lamenting the violence and division that took place between Christian sisters and brothers.”

Storytellers will include Jackie Wyse-Rhodes (Mennonite,) Paul Mullet (Catholic,) and Rev. Barry Murr (Presbyterian.) There will also be discussion of how the splintering experienced in the Reformation continues to affect relationships today.

All are invited to attend this event which will take place in the fellowship hall of First Mennonite, 101 S. Jackson St.
