BOOK CLUB
Do you like to read, discuss ideas, and share fellowship? FPC has started a book club, so please join us! Invite your friends and neighbors too! We’ll choose a book, give you a month or two to read it, and then meet for some fun and fellowship and discussion. One book per meeting, you can choose to join us for one book, or many. What kind of books? It’s up to us! Fiction or non-fiction, spiritual or not: any contemporary book of interest to the group can be chosen. How does what YOU read change how you look at and interact with the world? Does your faith affect how a book touches you, and does how a book touches you affect your faith?
Please see Lori Tierney if you are interested, or have any questions. We are
also looking for volunteers to host book nights, for your
ideas/preferences regarding meeting location or other details (snacks, coffee?).
For more info contact the church office at (408) 297-7212 or
Please RSVP.
Wednesday, May 30, 7:00 p.m.
at Rich Stewart’s home
 Some of us read this great book late
last year, but missed the discussion
(often as good as the book :-), so we’re
meeting again to talk about it!
Come
even if you haven’t read this book…
you’ll want to after hearing us go on
and on about it!
Father Gregory Boyle weaves a heart-wrenching story
here about gangs in inner-city Los Angeles and his life ministering
to them. In order to give young people an alternative
to gang life, Fr. Boyle started Homeboy Industries
(http://homeboy-industries.org), the largest gang intervention
program in the country, offering job training, tattoo removal,
and employment to members of LA gangs.
