The St. John Fisher Lending Library has a diverse collection of faith-based and inspirational books available for all ages. The library accepts book donations and encourages use of the library collection by selecting and displaying books of interest based on the liturgical calendar. The Lending Library Committee sponsors the St. John Fisher Book Club and meets as needed to sort and catalog purchases and donations and to plan and promote its theme of “Building Our Faith, One Page at a Time”.
St. John Fisher Book Club meets quarterly (September, December, March and June) for informal discussions on a variety of books chosen by its participants and supporting the goal of examining and strengthening our faith. Books are selected from numerous sources, including but not limited to the St. John Fisher Lending Library, whose motto is “Building Our Faith, One Page at a Time”. Everyone is welcome to attend. Notice of upcoming meetings appear in the bulletin and on the St. John Fisher website (sjfchurch.org)
