Southminster Reads 2026
Each year, the Adult Ed Committee selects a book and invites the whole congregation to read it. In the Fall, we have congregational discussions to focus on what people have gained from the books. For 2026, we suggested people read the Declaration of Independence for the 250th anniversary, and we selected three books that would be valuable resources for further understanding.
**We have purchased several copies of the book for the Southminster Library; if you are interested in borrowing one of these, please see Dan Rasmussen.
Church Library
Please remember that we have a library for your reading enjoyment and enlightenment. Stop by Room 7 to check out our collection of books on the Bible, theology, and current issues. There are also some reference works on the shelves in the Conference Room. Feel free to borrow (and return) books that you find interesting.
First Thursday Book Group
Adult Education leads a book study on the first Thursday of each month with books on Social Justice and Progressive Theology. This is a drop-in club. Some people come every month, and others come when the topic or book is of particular interest. All are welcome to a time of fellowship and lively discussion for readers. You can also join our Group on Goodreads.com.
