composing a life discussion group
The Composing a Life Group, led by Alison Seward, discusses topics related to living well in the last decades of life. The group meets once a month on Mondays at 10am and Wednesdays at 4pm. Many of the readings are available in local libraries.
Contact Alison Seward with any questions at 603-748-6131.
Current Readings
February - The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming, by Henri Nouwen. Discussions will take place on Monday, February 24 at 10:00 and Wednesday, February 26 at 4:00. I understand that Jay has used this book both in Monday Meditation and as the basis for a Lenten study course several years ago, so I will see if he can share some study questions with us.
March - The White Stone, by Esther de Waal. Discussions will be held on Wednesday, March 26 at 4:00, and Monday, March 31 at 10:00. Karen Shepherd will lead the Wednesday discussion, and I'll be home in time to participate on Monday.
April - The Bible: A Biography, by Karen Armstrong. Discussions on Monday, April 28 at 10:00, and Wednesday, April 30 at 4:00. We'll plan to select books for the next several months at this meeting as well.
Both The Return of the Prodigal Son and The White Stone can be ordered at Morgan Hill if you'd like (tell them it's for a book group and they will give you 15% off), but The Bible: A Biography is not available there but is attainable online. I have not looked into availability at local libraries.
