This month the book club will be reading the Henry James short story "The Beast in the Jungle" referenced by Father Mark in his sermon on Sunday, May 7. (Click here to watch the sermon on our Facebook page.) "The Beast in the Jungle" has been noted as an example of the author’s sense of irony and his love of plot twists. The book can be found in BCCLS as part of short story collections, some with only James stories and some with other authors. Please join us! 



Join the All Saints' Book Group in a discussion. They are always looking for new members and everyone is welcome! The All Saints' Evening Book Group generally meets the first Thursday of each month at 7:30 pm in person and on Zoom. The group reads a variety of genres and styles of fiction and non-fiction books from all time periods.
