Literature Circle
FPC Literature Circle
Literature Circle meets from September thru May the second Tuesday of each month at 1:00 PM in the McCullough Room. We have a half hour coffee social to greet the members & guests followed by a review of a book listed for that particular month. The reviewers are men & women interested in good Literature, ie teachers, pastors, church members & staff, authors, etc. Two copies of each book to be reviewed are available in the church library to read beforehand.
The reviews are video-taped each month and are available to view here on the Literature website shortly after the monthly review is finished. Visit the third tab on this page marked “Video Archive” or visit the FPC Literature Circle YouTube Playlist.
Men & women of all faiths are welcome & invited to attend.

“I love books. I adore everything about them. I love the feel of the pages on my fingertips. They are light enough to carry, yet so heavy with worlds and ideas. I love the sound of the pages flicking against my fingers. Print against fingerprints. Books make people quiet, yet they are so loud.” Author Nnedi Okorator
