Book Group Reminder

Book Group is this Thursday, December 3rd at 8:30 pm at Lacey Schofield's house.  The book we are discussing is The Santa Letters by Stacy Gooch-Anderson.  Here is a brief overview of the book:


One year ago on Christmas Eve, William died. For Emma, the hit-and-run driver killed more than her husband; he killed her joy in life itself. Now, as Christmas approaches again, Emma Jensen finds herself sinking into a depression that nothing can breach; not her job, not her love for her children, and certainly not the season. Money is tight, and emotions are taut, and this year Christmas will be a meager, empty, and painful experience. Only six-year-old McKenna believes in miracles and the magic of Christmas. The rest of the family knows that Christmas can never be the same. But when a mysterious package and an ornate letter arrive on the doorstep, things begin to change. Each day, a package and a letter signed Santa arrive for the family, and together they come to understand that the joy of Christmas does not have to be lost forever, and that God s love can heal any wound, no matter how deep. The Santa Letters will take the Jensens on a journey through a Christmas experience that will have the power to heal them all.

Feel free to come even if you haven't read the book.  You will still be able to participate in this discussion just by drawing from your own Christmas experiences.  Hope to see you there!
