​​Gratitude Journal Prompts (Resources/Gratitude Journal Prompts)
The Stewardship Ministry has compiled a “Gratitude Journal” that will be made available for everyone on a table outside the sanctuary or contact the office if you’d like to have a gratitude journal sent to you. The Gratitude Journal prompts are also available to download It is meant to be a daily journal where you can spend five minutes a day thinking of the things for which you are grateful. There will be prompts to help you get the ball rolling such as: Things I love, What brings me joy, and What positive things have happened in the course of my day.
​​​​​​
​​​JANUARY BOOK CLUB SELECTION
Join us to discuss the historical novel, The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro, a Booker prize winner, on Saturday, January 18 at 10:00. A butler who served his lordly employer with loyalty and dedication in the pre-war years realizes his mistake too late.
"In the summer of 1956, Stevens, a long-serving butler at Darlington Hall, decides to take a motoring trip through the West Country. The six-day excursion becomes a journey into the past of Stevens and England, a past that takes in fascism, two world wars, and an unrealized love between the butler and his housekeeper." (goodreads)
Even if you have seen the movie, you will want to read the book.
