Chapter 13: Prologue

Well, where do we go from here? Several people have mentioned second books but I feel it would be premature to choose another book without first examining our first attempt at this format. Would someone be willing to host a very informal coffee and dessert at their home in the next two weeks so we could debrief and talk about future endeavors? Thanks, Greg

Chapter 11

How many chapters are in this book?

Would someone (who has not already hosted a Trinity event in their home) be willing to do so in early December so we can celebrate the closure of this first book and decide where you might wish to go from here? Shalom, Greg

Chapter 9

The blog is generating very little blogging. From my conversations with various people I am led to believe people are reading the book but not blogging about it. So, I would offer that we begin using the blog to talk about the process of blogging, book study blogs, and other items related to how blogs might serve us in maintaining and renewing friendships and relationships in our parish. Either way, I will keep posting chapter titles...

Shalom,

Greg Powell

Women's Book Study Blog

I am happy to welcome you to Trinity Cathedral's women's ministry blog site. We are beginning with a book study. We believe blogging offers us the opportunity to stay connected with one another in a fun format that respects our time restraints.

We are going to read Noelle Oxenhandler's The Wishing Year: A House, A Man, My Soul--A Memoir of Fulfilled Desire. The schedule listed below will guide our readings. The goal is to read the text of the assigned week and blog about it the following week. For example, blogging on chapter 1 would begin Sept 6th. Enjoy.
  • Sept 1 - Sept 5: Chapter 1
  • Sept 6 - Sept 12: Chapters 2 & 3
  • Sept 13 - Sept 19: Chapters 4 & 5
  • Sept 20 - Sept 26:Chapters 6 & 7
  • Sept 27 - Oct 3: Chapters 8 & 9
  • Oct 4 - Oct 10: Chapters 10 & 11
  • Oct 11 - Oct 17: Chapter 12
