Please come and enjoy the offerings of the Church Library which is now open for lending! Thank you to those who donated books over the past year including Deacon Beth, Ellen Conroy, Laura Reiter, and Sue Bianco. Ponder the power of reading with this quote from one of our recent library donations:
“What an astonishing thing a book is. It’s a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.”
