Book Club Meeting March 18: Warrior Monk

Warrior Monk: A Pastor Stephen Grant Novel by Ray Keating

The author – St. John’s own Ray Keating – will lead the discussion!

From the Amazon.com description: “Warrior Monk revolves around a former CIA assassin, Stephen Grant, who has lived a far different, relatively quiet life as a parish pastor in recent years. However, a shooting at his church, an historic papal proposal, and threats to the Pope's life mean that Grant's former and current lives collide. Grant must tap the varied skills learned as a government agent, a theologian and a pastor not only to protect the Pope, but also to feel his way through a minefield of personal challenges.”

We will meet at church at 7:30 PM on Friday, March 18.

Buy the book, read it, and show up for the discussion! For more information, please talk with or contact Pastor Noack (stbnoack@aol.com), Ray Keating (Rkeat614@aol.com), or Jim Farrell (TaTaTuma@aol.com).
