We will divide this study into two sections. We will discuss the first four sessions before the holidays meeting on October 10 and 24 and November 7 and 14. As a group we will determine when to complete the final four sessions after the holidays.

The group meets at 6:45 pm on Mondays. Sessions usually last 60-75 minutes depending on the discussion. A sign-up sheet is located on the activity board. If you have any questions, feel free to call Mary Beth MartinBellavia (815-338-5194).
