If you remember, I was asking for some book recommendations. We launched our church’s reading programme today and it was a great start! The book counter that we set up was busy, busy, busy and I thank the Lord for answering our prayers.
The idea behind the reading programme is this: rather than having a static library that is only frequented, or rather “in-frequented” as it were, by 2 or 3 people, I thought up an idea to make the library more or less “mobile”, i.e. a number of books being read and circulated among church members.
It involves the choosing of 4 books to read within the year, each to be finished in 2 months, with the first installment from April to May. After completing each book, you get hold of the other one you signed up for and pass on the one you’ve finished to next person in line. By the end of the year, if you have succeeded in the programme, you will be given your first book as a “you’ve done it!” award.
We started well and I hope we will end it with a bang as well!
