Jul 12: WELCA Book Club
The WELCA Book Club will meet Saturday, July 12, in the Fellowship Hall. Breakfast buffet will start at 9 AM with book discussion to follow. Our discussion book, “The Winter Palace” by Eva Stachniak, is the story of Catherine the Great's rise to power as seen through the eyes of her servant, Barbara (Vavaria). When Catherine (Sophie) arrives in court as a teen-age, she recruits Vavara to be her eyes and ears. Catherine has ambitions beyond marrying the then-Empress's nephew. Together the two young women scheme to enable Catherine's rise to the pinnacle of absolute power. These schemes include enforced marriage, illicit affairs and much, much more.
If you are planning to attend or have questions please contact the church office.
