The Wednesday morning Women’s Book Study group has chosen See No Stranger: A Memoir and Manifesto of Revolutionary Love by Valarie Kaur to be our book for study and reflection this year. Through her own journey as a young brown girl growing up in California, Kaur declares revolutionary love as the call of our time, a practice that extends to others, to our opponents and to ourselves. It enjoins us to see no stranger but instead to look at others and say: You are part of me I do not yet know in order to transform ourselves, our communities, and the world. See No Stranger helps us imagine new ways of being with each other – and with ourselves – so that together we can begin to build the world we want to see. We only have one copy of the book left in the church office, but you can also order it from the Water Street Bookstore in Exeter or Amazon. We have once again found a study guide which will serve as a starting point for our monthly discussions; you can pick it up from Heather in the church office.

 

Our meetings take place on the second Wednesday of the month at 10 am in the church parlor so our next meeting will be Wednesday December 13th. For that meeting we’ll read part II. see no stranger: tend the wound / loving opponents 4. rage. We welcome any interested woman to join us. If you have any questions, please contact Debbie Leavitt at daleavitt77@comcast.net

 

This group meets monthly, September–May, on the 2nd Monday of each month, 4:00-5:30 pm in the Church Parlor. This is an informal gathering, to share joys and concerns, tools for coping, and each other’s company. There is no cost. Because of COVID protocols, however, there are space limitations. For information about openings, please email Steve Hardy
