so much to learn...


Book group gathered last night to review March, and who knew such a small book would be jam-packed with big issues. After touching on topics including slavery, racism, religion, gender roles, war, and the evolution of human dignity in modern society, the conversation certainly wasn't lacking for depth and passion!

Thank you Tina who diligently facilitated from afar, sending us her poignant questions and thoughts to guide discussion.

Pepper was kind enough to send the link to the documentary she was telling us about; for those interested in learning more about the church's history with African-Americans: Nobody Knows: The Untold Story of Black Mormons

(And thanks to everyone who brought those delicious treats! They soothed the passing of my quarter century)

  1. Thanks Martha for hosting Book club on your birthday! Fascinating read for those who missed it, indeed full of unexpected gore and controversy!
