Sunday, May 22| GnD Rountable Discussion

Get a jump on all the Saturday morning yard sales. EHST is having its first fundraiser this Saturday, April 2nd, at Jordan High School, 8:00 a.m. to Noon. We have books, records, jewelry, plants, household accessories, and collectibles, all at affordable prices. Plan to be there. You may find a very special item you’ve wanted for years!

We need volunteers to help. If you can spare an hour or so, contact Marge Holmgren (919-240-4187) or Charmyne Blake (919-593-4070) to arrange a time. Your contributions to the success of EHST's yard sale are greatly appreciated.


Sunday, April 3 | Platform Speaker


Susan Rose, Leader, The Ethical Society Without Walls

The Ethical Society Without Walls serves people who are unable to attend Ethical Societies with walls. We connect with each other by online forum discussions, chats and regular community telephone calls.

ESWoW is dedicated to cultivating a community of people who support each other in leading a more ethical life. ESWoW is currently supported primarily by the American Ethical Union but needs to move towards being a fully independent Ethical Society supported by members and participants.

For more about this on-line Ethical Society and Susan see ESWoW.
