ARTICULATING YOUR FAITH
Just a reminder to the people signed up for this seminar that the meetings are as follows: Thursday, Dec. 3rd, and 10th, Thursday, Jan. 21st from 7-9pm. in the church library.
MEN'S BOOK DISCUSSION GROUP
Monday, Dec. 7th at 7:30pm. in the church library. The men will discuss The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Murial Barbery. The book follows events in the life of concierge, Renee Michel, whose deliberately concealed intelligence is uncovered by the unstable but intellectually precocious girl named Paloma Josse. Paloma is the daughter of an upper-class family living in the upscale Parisian apartment building where Renee works. The book is full of allusions to literary works, music, films and paintings. It incorporates themes relating to philosophy, class-consciousness, and personal conflict.
The men are always looking for new members...please join them. No sign up necessary.
MEN'S AND WOMEN’S BOOK DISCUSSION GROUP
On Thursday, Jan. 21st at 5:30pm the men and women will have a combined discussion on Hot, Flat, and Crowded by Thomas Friedman. Friedman brings his unique point of view to the red hot topic of global climate change. Here he proposes a national plan for going green that will not only benefit the earth, but also make America's economy stronger and its borders more secure.
