Anderson Room
Summer Book and Film Fellowship Sunday, July 26, 10:10 a.m. and Wednesday, July 29, 6:30 p.m., Anderson Room All are welcome to join Pastor Daniel Cochran in reading Claire Keegan’s novella, Small Things Like These (Grove Press, 2021). Winner of the Orwell Prize for political writing and shortlisted for the 2022 Booker Prize, Small Things is a very short but “deeply affecting story of hope, quiet heroism, and empathy” based on the true story of the infamous Magdalen laundries in Ireland. Go ahead and pick up a copy and begin reading now! We will meet after worship on July 26 for a guided discussion. Then, on Wednesday evening, July 29, we will gather to watch and discuss the 2024 award-winning film adaptation directed by Tim Mielants starring Cillian Murphy and Emily Watson. Please contact Pastor Daniel Cochran with any questions, dcochran@garychurch.org.
