Word & Spirit Book Group

Where will good books and good conversations take you this year?

Tuesday, September 29th at 7:15p in the Seabury Room

No pre-registration is required.

Word & Spirit Book group is starting up again on September 29th for another year of engaging and rewarding reads! This year’s theme is Journeys. Each month we will ask a different question as we read novels that explore different kinds of journeys and the people who embark on them.

Word & Spirit is a book club dedicated to exploring the nature of the sacred in literary fiction. Reading fiction has been shown in multiple studies to increase empathy. When we engage in a story from another person’s perspective, we gain insight and appreciation for the lives of others and for the human condition.

This year our meetings will take place on Tuesday evenings from 7:15-8:30pm except where date changes are noted. We will gather in the Seabury Room. Bringing snacks to share is encouraged! All of the books we will read together are available through the Woodbury Public Library and the Southbury Public Library.
