MasonTorah Club
We meet every Saturday at 2 P.M.
The purpose of Mason Torah Club is to bring people of various perspectives together to look at the Torah-- the first five books of Moses. They are foundational in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and have been influential in Western Culture as well. By better understanding the Torah, Jews, Christians, and Muslims can have a clearer idea of what they believe in. Non-believers can also be impacted by having a fuller understanding of what the Torah says and how it has impacted the world.
If you are interested in attending Mason Torah Club, you are welcome to e-mail the group organizer, Cody Cook, at revd_icu [at] yahoo [dot] com or feel free to simply drop in during one of the meetings.
