Book Study Small Group
Tuesdays at 10:00am
On Tuesday mornings at 10:00am from August - June a group of us join together to share in reflection and conversation around books. We read on a diversity of topics from many different authors as we listen, learn and grow from many voices. Many of the studies this year will also be connected to the themes in our Seasonal Discipleship Invitation.
