Men’s Book Club:

 

The Congregational Church of Austin’s men’s book club started in 1992. It includes men from the church and friends of church members.  Meetings are hosted at 10:30 AM on the third Wednesday of each by members of the club.  In January, the club makes its selections for the year from recommendations by members. The subjects are diverse; they include histories, novels, mysteries, religion, science, and politics. Once each summer, a poetry meeting combined with the women’s bookclub  is hosted by the Briggs family at their Lake Travis home. A club website provides more details see the link below.
