On Sunday, May 3rd, Professor Patrick Henry, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy and Literature at Whitman College, will be a guest presenter at Peace Lutheran Church (39th and SW Thistle). Dr. Henry will give a special presentation on the community of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, France, who, along with neighboring villages, offered safe haven to Jewish refugees during WW2, saving thousands of lives.

Dr. Henry, author of WE ONLY KNOW MEN: The Rescue of Jews in France During the Holocaust, will address the adult and youth education classes at 9:15 am. Then, following the 10:30 worship service, a simple lunch will be provided @ 11:45 am as Professor Henry shares more of the story of Le Chambon, and shows the award winning film “Weapons of the Spirit,” by Pierre Savage, himself a child survivor of the holocaust.

Admission is free and community members are welcome. Please call the Peace church office by April 30 for luncheon reservations: 206-930-3172
