Join us for lively discussion about our favorite thing: reading books! We’ll meet in the conference room - or in our outdoor pavilion if weather permits! - after worship (grab a coffee & a snack in the fellowship hall, too!).

This month’s book is “The Giver” by Lois Lowry.

In Lois Lowry’s Newbery Medal–winning classic, twelve-year-old Jonas lives in a seemingly ideal world. Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver does he begin to understand the dark secrets behind his fragile community.

Life in the community where Jonas lives is idyllic. Designated birthmothers produce newchildren, who are assigned to appropriate family units. Citizens are assigned their partners and their jobs. No one thinks to ask questions. Everyone obeys. Everyone is the same. Except Jonas.
