Book Selection For May & June: The Devil in the White City

The OSLC Book Club will be reading the book, The Devil in the White City : Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America, by Erik Larson in May and June. Kirkus Review describes this book as “a vivid account of the tragedies and triumphs of the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago and the concurrent depravities of America’s first serial killer.”

We are able to get many copies from the public library in a book kit. Our discussion will be held at the end of June. Please join us!

Youth Group Collecting Coke Points For Mission Trip

Any Coke drinkers in your family? If so, the Our Saviors youth who are heading on the mission trip this summer would love your extra My Coke Rewards points! My Coke Rewards points can be redeemed for many items that the kids could use on the trip, including gift cards for meals and possibly even theme park tickets. It could be a great way for the youth to save a little money. My Coke Rewards codes can be found on participating Coke products (under caps, inside 12-packs, and on multi-pack wraps), and can be dropped off in the marked box at the Welcome Center. Thank you!
