Palmer Seminary invites all to attend the Orlando Costas Lectureship. The Rev.

Its focus will be on the geopolitical struggles over the southern borders of the United States in response to recent political developments that are adversely affecting immigration such as DACA.

Music will be provided by the Rev. Julio Gonzalez and Annie Gonzalez, long time American Baptists and pastors of Primera Iglesias Bautista of Central Islip, NY.

A continental breakfast will be served.
