Library News
Now that the restrictions have been lifted, be sure to visit our church library in the Fireside Room. We have an extensive General Reading section as well as Bible Study, Spiritual Guidance, Grief and Children’s Books.
One that has been donated lately is “The Emptiness of Our Hands”, very relevant in this current time with so much homelessness in our community. This book is a chronicle of James Murray and Phyllis Cole-Dai of the 47 days they spent on the street among the homeless in Columbus, Ohio. This interesting story of their experiences, along with pictures, can be found under GR Col. Happy Reading!
