As a result of the cancellation of the 2020 colloquium, ACHTUS has decided to offer two opportunities for members to come together. This virtual “Cafecito en la Placita” will take place on June 9 and 10 (see times below). We would like to encourage all members to stop in during any of the scheduled times to chat with one another, brainstorm ideas for scholarship together, pray, and just enjoy life. If you would like to lead a prayer or a special topic during either of the scheduled times, please contact ACHTUS/HTI Intern José Santana at jlsantana@mail.smu.edu to organize a time and breakout room. Please notify José by June 7, and he will post available breakout rooms during each Zoom session.
