A Sneak Peek at Summer

It is becoming a summer tradition at St. Stephen's to choose a book that all of us-- clergy, staff, and congregation-- can read together, wherever the heat and haze find us. We are excited to announce this year's selection:

Life After Life by Jill McCorkle is filled with a sense of wonder at our capacity for self-discovery at any age. The residents, staff, and neighbors of the Pine Haven retirement community (from 12-year-old Abby to 85-year-old Sadie) share life's profound discoveries and are some of the most true-to-life characters that you'll ever likely to meet in fiction. Delievered with her trademark wit, McCorkle's constantly surprising novel illuminates the possibilities of second chances, hope, and the rediscovery of life even in its twilight.

Stop by the Bookshop @ St. Stephen's to pick up your copy to take to the beach, river, or back porch swing!
