Library News "Do give
books-religious or otherwise-for Christmas. They’re never fattening, seldom
sinful, and permanently personal." The Church library has new books for children and adults! Hush, Little One, by Anita Reith Stohs, is a lullaby for God’s children. A sweet and simple bedtime book, it tells your child of God’s love for her/him and all of creation. John Tighe’s The Way to God contains stories, poems, puzzles and journal entries that reinforce the values you want to instill in the children in your life. A Garden in Paris, by Stephanie Whitson, is a novel about a young widow and her daughter as they try to rebuild their lives after the tragic loss of their husband and father. As the distance between Mary Davis and her only child grows, Mary follows her heart to the City of Lights. Maybe there she will find a way to reconcile her past and face the future. Book 2 of the "Country Road Chronicles", Rachel’s Prayer by Leisha Kelly is the story of a family being pulled apart by World War II and their struggle to remain hopeful and together in spirit as letters from their beloved soldiers in Europe and the Pacific slow to a stop. Hidden in Pain View: A Secret Story of Quilts and the Underground Railroad, by Jacqueline L. Tobin and Raymond G. Dobard, "tells the fascinating story of a friendship, a lost tradition, and an incredible discovery, telling for the first time how enslaved men and women encoded messages within quilt patterns that helped fugitive slaves navigate their escape along the Underground Railroad." The Bible in 90 Days will be familiar to many readers. It’s a copy of the Bible many of you used when Zion read the Bible in 90 days. Perhaps, you would like to read it again or for the first time! Don’t forget to check out the many Advent and Christmas books to be found in the library as well as the new additions and old favorites. Zion’s Church Library Committee
