The hit Broadway musical Les Miserables is one of the longest running musicals in the world. Based on the epic novel by Victor Hugo, it tells the story of Jean Valjean’s quest for redemption and has inspired audiences to ponder themes of justice, poverty, freedom, love, and God’s mercy. Our Lenten series examines six of these themes, connecting them to our faith through the lives of one of the characters in the story.

Each session in our series, co-led by Angie Bateman and Brent and Cynthia Eichelberger, will include an opening DVD segment and discussion based on the book The Grace of Les Miserables by Matt Rawle. We will meet in the Conference Room at 9:00 am. Participants are asked to obtain their own copy of the book (available from Thrift Bbooks or Amazon).

There’s a new kind of fellowship opportunity at Fox Valley Presbyterian Church - “Thursday Women’s Fellowship.”

We encourage any and all women to drop in at church on the first and third Thursday of every month from 5:30– 7:00 pm. Bring a sack supper (your own food from home or purchased on the way) and enjoy eating and spending time together in the Cafe.

After dinner, we will meet in the Conference Room for discussion or an activity. The evening’s host will provide the discussion topic or activity. Feel free to bring along your own craft, suggest activities for the group, or break away to attend a meeting when needed.

There is no preparation or cost; just come and enjoy some fellowship. If you need a ride or have questions, email Angie Bateman or Deb Mengler.

The Earth Stewardship Team generally meets on the third Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm via Zoom.
