Other interests: Circle members enthusiastically participate in the full life of PW by supporting all opportunities for service, study, and fellowship.
Other information to share: Members of Circle Nine are women who enjoy serious reading and who love the opportunity to delve into the issues presented in the books. No special qualifications are needed -- just a love of books and open discussion. Varying viewpoints are encouraged, and this makes the gathering really interesting! Usually, the members are trying to discover the appropriate Christian response to the issues in the literature. Members develop the reading list and sign up for responsibilities like hosting and leading the book discussion, so no one takes a job she does not want. Participation in this group is stimulating and truly enjoyable.
