BreadBreakers One-Meeting Book Club: Of Mice and Men

BreadBreakers is a community where people of all different belief systems and backgrounds can create community - and what better way to do that than reading together?

Join us as we combine the kind, curious, and welcoming atmosphere of a BreadBreakers dinner with the thought-provoking, fun format of a book club. Here's what to expect:

• We'll be reading Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck.
• This will be a one-meeting club, so if you've ever wanted to do a book club but couldn't commit to multiple meetings, here's your opportunity!
• Snacks :)
• BreadBreakers ground rules apply - we'll lead with curiosity, converse with kindness, and strive to dig beneath the surface level.
• We'll be gathering in Meeting Room 1 at the Reston Regional Library.
• Participants will be responsible for obtaining their own copies of the book. Here's the Amazon link, if helpful.
• Our BreadBreakers table hosts will come ready with questions and facilitation skills - you come ready to discuss!

I've never attended a BreadBreakers event before - what is BreadBreakers?

BreadBreakers is a community where neighbors from all different beliefs and backgrounds can hear, be heard, and know one another. Most frequently, we do this through the ancient practice of breaking bread around a common dining table.

But we're more than just a discussion group - we're a movement to heal our world's broken discourse and forge togetherness in a time of isolation and loneliness. Through the sacred act of just "being" together, we're working to rebuild the town square, one table (or book club) at a time.

BreadBreakers is a religiously inclusive by Restoration United Methodist Church in Reston, VA. All faiths, beliefs, and stripes are welcomed, and our leadership and community include people who attend Restoration and people who don't.
