January's book group selection is Cutting for Stone, by Abraham Verghese. "This sprawling, 50-year epic begins with the 1954 birth of conjoined twins to an Indian nun in an Ethiopian hospital. The likely father, a British surgeon, flees upon the mother’s death, and the baby boys are adopted by a loving Indian couple who run the hospital. Filled with mystical scenes and deeply felt characters–and opening a fascinating window onto the Third World. Shades of Slumdog Millionaire.”-Jocelyn McClurg, USA Today

This book is available at Seattle Public Library in several formats including large print, audiobook CD and ebook. For more information or for assistance acquiring the book, please contact Jennifer Bodley.

Be part of this movement that is sharing God’s love with those in in need.   Please drop a dollar or two on Super Bowl Sunday into the soup pots held by our youngest on your way out of worship.   This year, the Youth Group has decided to give the funds collected to Packs for Kids at Eckstein Middle School, a weekend backpack food distribution program serving 80 plus children at Eckstein.
