This Sunday (April 15), the FPC Library will be displaying books on grief. Have you or someone you know been struggling with grief and hardships in your life? We have books by various Christian authors that may be able to help you.

Our books on grief are not in our online catalog yet, but many of our other books are and you can take a look at them here. When our books on grief are not being displayed you can find them in our Non-Fiction section under the number 248.86. Stop by on Sunday and browse our collection of resources on grief.

The FPC Library is open Sunday mornings before and after the service. You can contact us by email here.
