Wednesday Lenten Book Group Meets on March 23, 30 and April 6 at 7:30PM

Please join us on March 23, 30 and April 6 at 7:30PM in St. Mary’s chapter room as we read and discuss Morgan Cron’s Chasing Francis: A Pilgrim’s Tale. Cron’s book is written in a genre called wisdom literature, which navigates a very delicate balance between fiction and nonfiction, pilgrimage and teaching. He weaves together an engaging story of a mega-church pastor, Chase Falson, who has lost his faith so he crosses the Atlantic to visit his uncle, a Franciscan priest, where he encounters the teachings of Francis of Assisi. We will follow Chase’s spiritual journey in the footsteps of St. Francis, and examine his impact 800 years ago and today. It is an easy but compelling read that lends itself to discussion and introspection. Copies of the book are available in the church office. Please invite your family and friends—particularly anyone wrestling with questions of faith
