We
have a reader/friendly library across the hall from Fellowship Hall.
There are no overdue fines or time limits for borrowing books. We have
lots of spiritual books by well known ministers and educators.
There
are books for adults, children and toddlers. Book donations are always
welcome. We hope to have the majority of our books about spirituality.
After we hear Rev. Wright's great sermons on Sundays, sometimes we need more
spiritual food during the week. That's what the library is for.
It's a resource for nurturing spiritual growth.
Our room is bright
and exciting and has comfortable chairs, so spend some time. Come visit
us!
If
you would like to donate a book in honor of, or in memory
of someone, please email me at Rufilius@aol.com.
A special bookplate will be added. Please leave the book at
the front office. Hannah and I will catalogue it, and notify you when it is in our
collection.
