Emmanuel Lutheran Episcopal Church in Augusta will offer a talk by Dr. James Melcher, professor of Political Science at University of Maine, Farmington, previewing, reviewing and updating our expectations of the US Supreme Court’s activity in the coming year. In this time of great political uncertainty, Melcher’s commitment to mutual understanding in political conversation and his continued cautious optimism about the American democratic experiment offer hope for those whose faith in our nation may be feeling shaky. “As a church, we are happy to support this learning opportunity, which will empower all to discuss our society’s current concerns from a place of understanding and hope,” says Emmanuel’s rector, the Rev. Ben Cooke.
