Eat before you come or bring a brown-bag supper.
"I was intrigued when I heard an NPR recommendation for summer reading. Emily sounds like a character worth knowing, somone who is living her life fully, but figuring out how to negotiate changes which come with age. Since some of us are interested in talking about our own aging or our aging parents, I thought others might enjoy the novel, too. I hope the early start time will allow us to finish so folks don't have to drive home in the dark. Do feel free to bring your supper; I'll be eating mine, too!" - Jane Smith
This A Gathering of Friends event was sparked by conversation at the June congregational meeting. Many of us love reading books and talking about them. Others of us are noticing that we are entering the "older generation" or have parents for whom we have new caring responsibilities.
If you are reading a book that you think others might enjoy, set a date for discussion and post a note on the A Gathering of Friends bulletin board. Drop Jane a note and we'll help get the word out.
