Women's Book Club
Thursday, May 9th at 7:00.
We will meet in person in the Fellowship Room, with a Zoom option. As a follow-up to last month's biography, we are reading a fictional book set in Egypt: Crocodile on the Sandbank by Elizabeth Peters. "If Indiana Jones were a female...who lived in Victorian times, he would be Amelia Peabody Emerson." Please join us. Contact Suzanne Lee with questions (leeharris@frontiernet.net).
Non Fiction Book Club
Non Fiction Book Club: May 21 at 3:00 pm
We will meet at 3:00 pm on Tuesday, May 21st to discuss Mind at Play: How Claude Shannon Invented the Information Age by Jimmy Soni and Rob Goodman. Working at Bell Labs, Shannon's contemporaries compared him to Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton. His insights stand behind every computer built, email sent, video streamed and webpage loaded.
We will break for the summer so there will not be a meeting in June, July or August.
We will resume meeting at 3:00 pm on Tuesday, September 17th to discuss the Great Emergence: How Christianity is Changing and Why by Phyllis Tickle. Tickle observes that massive upheavals have happened in Christianity every 500 years and shows that we are entering such a time currently. She provides insight into the possible future of the church.
We welcome all members of the parish and their friends to participate in the book club. Meetings will be held in a hybrid format with both in person attendance and via Zoom. The problems which we had with audio during zoom meetings have been corrected. To get more information about the book club, to be added to our distribution list or to suggest a book for discussion, please contact Jim Baroody (jimbaroody@gmail.com).
