Wayfarers Reading Club
The Wayfarers are long-standing
reading groups at Ste-Geneviève United Church. There are two groups:
one meeting on Mondays at 11 am and one meeting on Wednesday
nights at 7 pm.
A wayfarer is someone who travels on
foot. This a good analogy for the pace of the groups: we gather, we
talk about current events, we read together and discuss the books as
the Spirit moves us, in a relaxed friendly atmosphere. No need to read
ahead or come prepared in anyway. We travel all together, walking
through the book with no specific deadline.
The topics vary from current events to
inspirational books, to theology and Biblical scholarship. The
participants choose the books together.
One can join a group at any point, but
the start of a new book is usually a good opportunity to join.
The
Monday group (which has
been on zoom for the last year) is going to gather back in person to
start
a new book on June 13. When the weather is good, the group will
meet outside, around a picnic table. Otherwise, they will meet in the
choir room. At that date, the
Monday group will start reading
Fly
While You Still Have Wings by Joyce Rupp.
The Wednesday group is currently going
through the series of books
Joshua
by Joseph F. Girzone and is currently meeting in the church’s
choir room
