TNL Spring Break!

Gentlemen:

THE NICODEMUS LEAGUE will be taking a "Spring Break" in observance of Holy Week and Easter Week!  Thus, our next get-together will be Wednesday, 6 April, at the usual time and place.  May you and yours enjoy a rich and meaningful season as we celebrate the mysteries of the faith.  I will be in town during this time, so if you'd like to get together let me know!

Nourishment Tomorrow!

Nourishment for spirit, mind, and body are again on-hand at THE NICODEMUS LEAGUE tomorrow!  We'll enjoy box sandwiches from The Egg & I (fire me an email -- prdunklau@gmail.com -- with your order) and then take a look at a new book:  PowerSurge by Michael Foss.  Among other things, the author draws a distinction between the "old model" of church membership and the "new model" of discipleship.

Then, we'll engage our olfactory nerves with a little something called "No. 4711".  (You'll have to attend to enjoy!)

See you tomorrow at 12:00 noon -- and invite a friend!
