The Fr. Gabriel Richard Lecture Series Presents Fr. Tom Firestone

The Role of Religion in Community Organization

A lecture and discussion led by Fr. Tom Firestone

Thursday, Jan. 22nd at 7:00 PM 
Donnelly Hall at St. Mary Student Parish

Events like those in Ferguson, MO this past year showed us that minorities or those living in poverty don’t feel like they have a voice in their community.

How can the Church empower those with no political leverage?

Fr. Tom Firestone will speak from his experience helping to rebuild the city of Flint by providing safety, housing, education, and administration. Joining him will be Dr. Thomas Henthorn, Professor of History at U of M – Flint.
