Books & Beliefs

All are welcome to attend the Books & Beliefs meetings! Some folks are “regulars,” and some come to discuss a book of particular interest. We typically meet at 10 a.m. on the fourth Wednesday of the month from September through May. Meetings are held in the parlor. Contact Rebekah Gensler for details.
