Library

Our library is open when Andrews Hall is open!

 

 

The Library Committee’s mission is to provide books and other resources that will strengthen the lives of members and deepen their relationship with God. Stop in to see special book offerings tied to themes or causes supported by various DPC committees.

Thanks to the dedicated work of the Library Committee, and through a gift from an anonymous donor, the Library is newly renovated! New features include: a cozy conversation corner, brand new lighting, storage bins that double as benches, expanded room for meetings, a mini coffee bar, an expanded collection of books, and a revamped children’s area.

Also, the entire collection of books is now accessible online – so you can browse from home to see what is available before coming in!
