Advent Happy Meals

The First Advent in Palestine by Kelley Nikondeha will guide us through our Advent season this year. The book is free digitally on Hoopla (app or website) with your library card.
 
You can participate in the discussion in two ways! 
 
Tuesday Book Group will begin discussion on November 28 in its usual free-flowing way.
 
Or you can join in "Happy Meal" conversations Thursday nights at 6:30PM in the Gathering Place with structured conversation about the book and world events as well as hands-on activities, crafts, and prayer. However, reading isn't required to join in conversation--you're also welcome to drop in whichever weeks you are available. We invite you to bring a packed dinner or take-out as we talk and eat together. Happy Meal Schedule: 

• November 30 - "Beginnings" and Chapter 1 "Silence and Suffering"
• December 7 - Chapter 2 “God’s Peace Campaign”
• December 14 - Chapter 4 “Mothers of Advent”
• December 21 - Chapters 5 & 6 “A Hospitable Birth in a Hard Economy,” “Visible and Invisible”
