Join our Casual Seasonal Book Club!
Dive into great reads with a community that loves literature as much as you do. We keep the conversation alive and engaging through our FACEBOOK group, where members can share their thoughts, insights, and questions while reading. This ongoing online discussion allows everyone to participate at their own pace, fostering a rich and interactive reading experience.
At the end of each book, we gather in person at the Parish Center for a lively group conversation. This final meeting is a wonderful opportunity to connect with fellow book lovers, delve deeper into the themes and characters, and enjoy the shared enthusiasm of finishing a great book together.
Whether you’re a voracious reader or someone who enjoys a good book now and then, our book club offers a welcoming and relaxed environment. Join us for a season of enriching reads and meaningful discussions!
Our New Book: My Name is Ken and I Will Be Your Waiter for a Long, Long Time
We will be reading My Name is Ken and I Will Be Your Waiter for a Long, Long Time, a book based on the homilies, talks, and writings of Bishop Ken Untener. This group is different from the Small Faith Book Clubs that are also reading the book—we’ll connect virtually, with one in-person gathering. As you read along, you’re invited to join our Facebook page to share comments and respond to discussion questions. We will meet in the parish library on Thursday November 6th at 7pm for our final conversation about the book. Join the Facebook group and stop by the faith formation office to pick up your book copy if you want to participate. A limited number of copies are available at the Faith Formation Office.
Some Bishop Ken quotes: “I tell myself, ‘Ken, don’t try to gauge or measure how it is that God is working through you. Just do it. It’s only measured from a distance, usually a distance long after I’m dead.”
“The measure of our greatness, or our holiness, is the way we treat insignificant people.”
“We’re all in this together, facing life and death, personal successes and personal failures, sin and grace. At every Eucharist I stand with you together as we stand with Christ in his great continuing act of giving us entirely to the Father and letting us join with him in doing that, knowing that in the Father’s hands it all ultimately leads to life.”
