Good Book Club

The Good Book Club is an intergenerational group that meets monthly. Each month we choose a new book related to spirituality and faith, and then gather to discuss. This growth group encourages one another in practice along the spiritual life journey while deepening faith, exploring social justice issues, developing Christian friendships and enjoying fellowship with each other. 

All are welcome to join us on the fourth Sunday of the month at 4 pm in Fellowship Hall.
