Ready Readers

Oasis Center 1031 South Euclid Avenue, Sarasota, FL
Second Thursday of the Month at Noon

Ready Readers is a book discussion group that meets on the second Thursday of every month at noon in the Oasis Center. The books we read are chosen from a yearly list provided by the Florida UCC Women and selected by the chair of the organization’s Reading for Renewal. Our group reads the list and descriptions of approximately 30 books and votes on the ones we would like to read for the following year. Current lists of possible selections are available in the Syster Hall library as are several present and previously selected books.

Monthly selections are posted in the newsletter and the midweek message. We welcome and encourage the participation and input of new members even if you are not able to attend every meeting.

Origami

Artful Prayer

Oasis Center 1031 South Euclid Avenue, Sarasota, FL
December 8th at 2pm, ZOOM or Oasis Center

ALL INVITED!

Special guest artist Marylou Lindsay will lead us in making Origami Cranes. These will serve as prayerful ornaments for our church and then be sent out to our wider community so the more who attend, the merrier! No art experience is needed… supplies are provided if you attend in person. If via Zoom you will need origami paper (or any other papers cut into an exact square, any size), regular paper cut into exact square (for practice), and pen or pencil.

Sign up through the church office or contact Pastor Wes.
