What we're about

Interested in joining a book group for lesbians which meets once a month in the Redmond area to discuss books with a spiritual theme? We're a group of intelligent, thoughtful and articulate lesbians of all spiritual leanings, ages and backgrounds who explore many spiritual paths and ideas through reading fiction, biography, poetry, and books by spiritual leaders. The word "spiritual" is broadly defined in our group. We try to read from all spiritual points of view. We will meet one Saturday a month (the date and book are chosen by the group at each meeting) from 4:00-6:00 pm in one of our homes. You can attend as works best for you--regularly or when the book appeals to you. During, around, before and after our book discussion, we also share intimate conversation about our lives and experiences. Is there anything more wonderful and powerful than intimate conversation about the things that matter most to us with articulate, intelligent and deeply thoughtful lesbians? I hope you will join us to form community with remarkable women. Your insights and presence will be a welcome addition. Each one adds her own personal gifts to our intriguing conversations and explorations. Come join us!

Let's meet Saturday, August 15, via Zoom to discuss Brene Brown interviews

Online event

We had a wonderful and rich discussion on July 11, my friends. Thank you so much to the six of us who logged onto Zoom and joined in. The strength and commitment of this group makes it possible for us to connect intimately even on line, and I so appreciate all of you. We have agreed that we will continue discussing online resources rather than books until stores and libraries are open again. Please will you share your ideas for insightful online options for our future discussions? For our next meeting, we will discuss Brene Brown's interviews with Sue Monk Kidd and Jen Hatmaker, entitled Unlocking Us: Longing, Belonging and Faith. Here is the link to the interview: https://brenebrown.com/podcast/brene-with-sue-monk-kidd-and-jen-hatmaker-on-longing-belonging-and-faith/ We will also discuss Brene's solo episode on Unlocking Us: Shame and Accountability, which will include a discussion of the difference between being held accountable for racism and feeling shame and being shamed. Here is the link for this: https://brenebrown.com/podcast/brene-on-shame-and-accountability/ Some may wish to also peruse some of her other interviews in this series. You will need to download the Zoom app on your device of choice. Patty has generously offered to let us use her Zoom account, and she will be the official meeting host: Here is the link: Patty Ebner is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. The meeting will start at 4:00 but the Zoom app will be live at 3:45 if you want to chat earlier. Note the password you will need to join.
