“This book was written with three audiences in mind: those who are unsure of what they believe in but are searching for meaning, steadiness, and some kind of faith to live by; religious persons who are wrestling with the answers that their churches once gave them, are finding them lacking, but still want those same answers to meet the challenges of their present lives; and those who want to deepen their faith and enter more deliberately and intentionally into the more adult challenges into which authentic faith invites us.”~Quote taken from Wrestling with God: Finding Hope in our Daily Struggles. This program will take place in three sessions. Choose either to attend afternoons from 1-2:30 or evenings from 6:30-8. Facilitator: Maureen Heverin, SC
If you would like us to purchase the book for you, please let us know by September 1. The cost of the book is $16.

What if your country was swallowed by the sea?
The Pacific island nation of Kiribati is one of the most remote places on the planet, far removed from the pressures of modern life. Yet it is one of the first countries that must confront an existential dilemma of our time: imminent annihilation from sea-level rise. President Anote Tong races to find options, from mass migration to building underwater cities, but many Kiribati are already seeking safe harbor overseas, leaving behind 4000 years of Kiribati culture.
With sweeping cinematography, filmmaker Matthieu Rytz captures the shifting dynamics of climate change while crafting a portrait of the Kiribati people that reveals their strength and grace as they confront the looming waters head-on.
