2008-2009 PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN BOOK DISCUSSION GROUP LIST

Purpose: As Christian women living in and not apart from our world, we in Presbyterian Women hope to offer a safe environment for women to meet to discuss the challenges and opportunities of life as presented in the book selected.

This book group, sponsored by Presbyterian Women, is open to every women in Highland's congregation. The reviews are held on the fourth Wednesday of the month,  from September to June, at 12:00 noon in the Hudson Room - with two exceptions: November the group meets the third Wednesday due to Thanksgiving and December when there is no meeting. Check the Sunday bulletin or in the office for any changes in time or place. Books are reviewed either by a volunteer facilitator or spontaneously by the group. It is hoped that each person will be familiar with the book selected for that month. Each women may offer insights and opinions from their personal experiences in a safe environment. Books for the following year are chosen from suggestions of recommended books by those attending the final meeting of the year. Books are chosen from a broad range of subject matter. One classic is usually included on the list.

*The 2008-2009 list will be available July 15.
