Mark your calendars for Grace Lutheran Church West Springfield’s next book discussion, taking place Sunday, Feb. 22, 2009, at 11:00 a.m. in the church parlor.
This month’s featured book is “The Shack” by Wm. Paul Young. This book tells the story of Mack Phillips, who took his three children on a camping trip while his wife visited her sister. While Mack went to help his two older children when their canoe overturned, his youngest daughter, Missy, was abducted by a known child predator. Evidence of Missy turned up in an abandoned cabin and everyone knew the worst had happened. For the next four years, “a great sadness” fell over Mack and his family until a note from God showed up in his mailbox, inviting him back to the shack for the week-end. What he finds there will change his life forever.

The temperature will be up in the flower-bedecked sanctuary as we celebrate the Lord with a grand selection of Latino and African hymns, followed by a coffee hour with fair-traded coffee and home-baked goods containing tropical fruits and ingredients.
The Back Row Band will bring out the bongos and cruise-wear attire is encouraged for everyone attending. Anyone wishing to contribute to the coffee hour is invited to bake with pineapple, coconut, bananas or any other tropical ingredient.
Email the church office for more information. We hope to see you there! Aloha!
