Parish Library  

Hundreds of resources to choose from – books, DVDs, study programs, study Bibles, etc… The library is located in the Lower Church (tucked in the very back behind the wall) but has a ton of great resources for inspiration, prayer, entertainment, and study!  A smaller selection of resources is featured in the Gathering Space every day as well.
