Immacolata Book Club

We will begin meeting for the new year on Tuesday, September 10th in the Church Meeting Room. The Book Club, which reads both fiction and nonfiction, looks at books from a Catholic perspective. Members meet for about an hour and a half every other month during the school year. Books are chosen from the recommendations of the members.

Over this summer, members agreed to read whatever looked appealing and report their recommendations. Everyone is welcome to come and share opinions and ideas. What makes this group fun and interesting is the range of books that we select and discuss. No registration is necessary.

Please come and bring a friend! If you would like more information, contact Ann Wiedl at ann.wiedl@sbcglobal.net or 963-9603.
