The 2015 Speakers Series of the Association of Pittsburgh Priests will conclude on Thursday, November 12. The final talk will be given by St. Joseph Sister Kathy Sherman from La Grange, Illinois. She is a musician-composer, a gifted singer, liturgist and a Director of Spiritual Formation. Her talk is entitled: "Love Cannot be Silenced: Our Message and Our Mission" and will be offered on November 12. The world/planet is crying out for healing, hope and communion. The evening will invite reflection on the gift and challenge of incarnating the Love of God at this moment in history. As disciples, in community, we give witness to the Gospel by proclaiming to the world that "love cannot be silenced." Reflection will include Scripture, story, and original music by Sherman, who began writing music and lyrics in 1966 and has published at least fourteen CD's. As an example, her song, Language of the Heart, addresses the images of families affected by the Vietnam War and reaches across boundaries to reconcile and interconnect divisions.

The talk will be held at Kearns Spirituality Center, 9000 Babcock Blvd. in Allison Park behind the Motherhouse of the Sisters of Divine Providence from 7 - 9 PM. To RSVP, call 412-366-1124 or contact kearns@cdpsisters.org. The fee is $20.
