St. Mike's Book Club
St. Michael’s Bookclub is reading
The Shack
by William P. Young.
This is the story of Mackenzie Philip and his understanding of God. The Shack wrestles with
the timeless question, “Where is God in a world
so filled with unspeakable pain?” We meet this month on:
Friday January 9, 7:00 pm,
at the Keplinger’s house (1925 NE 140th Ave
in Portland). Join us even if you didn’t get a
chance to read the book. All are welcome!
“The Shack is the most absorbing work of
fiction I’ve read in many years. My wife and
I laughed, cried, and repented of our own lack
of faith along the way. The Shack will leave
you craving for the presence of God.”
-- Michael W. Smith, recording artist

caravan to the mountain. Ski rentals can be obtained locally:
