"Recommended books are windows to the world…they enlarge our vision of heart and mind and help us live our mission in today's world."   --Johanna Swords

Reading Program
Education is a core UMW value. Year-round, HPCUMC's unit joins women from across the country by reading books that further our vision. Titles cover contemporary topics: spiritual growth, mission, community nurturing and social action.

Special emphasis is given to summer reading. One book is assigned per month, and readers are invited to participate in a discussion group.

------------------------------------------------

"As Christians, we long to alleviate the suffering of others…The Nast Trinity dinners offer us the opportunity to directly address one limited problem…right now." --Roxanne Hamilton
