Book Club

Do you enjoy reading books? Do you enjoy a stimulating book discussion in a casual and friendly atmosphere? Would you like to be introduced to new books from many different genres, as well as meeting with friends that share your love for reading? Then, we invite you to Trinity’s book club. In existence for over 3 decades, our book club is unique in the fact that we are co-ed and intergenerational. This always leads to an interesting discussion from many different perspectives. We read fiction, nonfiction, and any category in between. There is no topic that we are averse to. All titles we read are selected by our members.

The book club meets monthly except in July. The booklist includes both secular and faith-based texts. All meetings begin with a light supper at 6:30 p.m., followed by the book discussion at 7:30 p.m.
