Lent Book Group
AND SO I WALKED by Anne Gardner
This Lent, you are warmly invited to journey with us in a new book group as part of our Lenten series, The Way.
We’ll be reading And So I Walked by Anne Gardner, a thoughtful, honest, and deeply human reflection on faith, doubt, courage, and the sacredness of the journey itself. This book invites us to walk slowly, notice deeply, and reflect honestly on where we have been and where we are being led.
The Schedule
Mondays, beginning February 23 at 4:00 PM through March 30
To keep the reading manageable and well-balanced, we’ll move through the book together over six weeks:
