The First Church Library Team invites you all to The Power of Libraries, on April 19th at 11:30 in the Koinonia Room.

Additionally, First Church librarians will speak to challenges they've faced in a variety of library settings and we'll explore some of what's freely available through your local library. There will be snacks! And a surprise!
