really good things in many parts of the world and here at home as well. Educating people in ways to improve the

own food; how to maintain better practices for better health. Beth Perkins will moderate. (This program was scheduled in November, but
canceled due to illness.)

February 15 - HOW DO WE
LOVE? COUNT THE WAYS. How do you define LOVE? What is the power of love? Is love omnipotent? Does love ever influence you to make choices
