The current read for Book Club is The Girl with the Louding Voice by Abi Dare. We will meet to discuss it on Tuesday, September 9 at 1pm. Books are available for check out from the book kit on the Welcome Table. For information, contact the Church Office.

Beginning Sept. 14 we will reconvene at 8:30 am for “gathering time” and discussion starting promptly at 8:45 am. We will begin considering ideas in the book, The Serviceberry, subtitled “an economy of gifts and abundance” by Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of Braiding Sweetgrass and Gathering Moss. Louise, Robbie, and Chuck believe this could inspire some discussion relevant to our times and our Christian responsibility to care for the earth and each other. The book is available at online used book sources and possibly local used bookstores. Also, at Target and Walmart for $11.90.
