Let Reading Take You Places This Summer
June 7, 2023In June, check out Derry’s collection of books about local places and history:
- Learn more about how Hershey Medical Center started
- Hear Kitty Hershey’s great ideas
- Step into the life of colonial Presbyterians
- Experience the fate of the Conestoga tribe
- Bake a yummy chocolate treat
Take a look at the staff shelf to get new ideas about where to visit, what to eat, and what to do all around Pennsylvania (and find out which staff member you might find riding the Trailblazer rollercoaster at Hersheypark).
Come back in July as we take a trip across the USA, then travel around the world with us in August. Browse books all summer in our online catalog and stop in to see the book displays. Derry’s lending library is just inside Entrance #1.
Keep your eyes open for our mobile book cart! Courtney McKinney-Whitaker introduced the cart at the picnic last Sunday (pictured), and it will be in the Narthex this summer, fully stocked with a rotating selection of titles for all ages.
TAKE THE SUMMER READING CHALLENGE FOR A CHANCE TO TITLE ONE OF PASTOR STEPHEN’S UPCOMING SERMONS!
- Check out a book from the Codington Library or the mobile cart.
- Take it somewhere (anywhere! your back yard, the playground, on a road trip, in your carry-on luggage to Zimbabwe).
- Take a photo or selfie of you with the book.
- Email the photo to Pastor Stephen or Sue George and it will be posted on the church’s Facebook page and Instagram account.
Each new book photo counts as an entry in a random drawing. The prize? You get to title one of Pastor Stephen’s upcoming sermons. That’s right: you pick the title and Pastor Stephen will preach on that topic!
- Last day to enter: Aug 13
- Winner announced Aug 20
Good luck and happy reading!
