Friday, April 7
6:00 - 8:00 pm

Join the First Friday Book Group for a discussion of Kerry Egan’s book On Living. As a hospice chaplain, Kerry Egan finds that each of her patients teaches her something—how to find courage in the face of fear or the strength to make amends; how to be profoundly compassionate and fiercely empathetic; how to see the world in grays instead of black and white. In this poignant, moving, and beautiful book, Egan passes along all of her patient’s precious and necessary gifts. Read more >
