Church Study Resources

Church Library

Our beautiful library with fireplace and lounge seating is located at the bottom of the main stairway. Our mission is to enrich the faith and knowledge of the congregation and support parish education.

The books in our collection include titles that support classes being offered at Holy Spirit as well as HSLC book club selections. We have adult fiction and non-fiction titles including stage of life issues, parenting, substance abuse issues, religious inquiry, prayer, Old and New Testament studies and biographies etc. We also have a collection of children/young adult fiction and non-fiction titles. There are videos, audio-tapes, CDs and DVDs.

Look for our monthly book suggestions in the Spirit News as well as book suggestions in the weekly Sprit News in the Sunday bulletin. As well as our Open House in November.

Our library collection has been greatly enriched by the monetary donations of our members and friends. We offer opportunities to add to our collections through our Library Wishes Tree located in the library. We also offer a Children’s Wishes Tree.

Our committee meets in the morning on the first Sunday of every month in the library during one of the services. We are always in need of more help. If you would like more information, please contact Connie Fermstad, DyAnn Dennie, Judy Patneaude, Kris Reekie, Laurence Ashley, Marjorie Bianco-Vernon or Beverly Berg.

Come visit the library downstairs! Directions on how to use the library are posted.

Sermons and Lessons on tape and on the Web

Sound booth operators are kept busy balancing and monitoring the sound in the sanctuary, auditorium and fellowship hall during worship and other events. They also set up microphones and other audiovisual equipment for our wonderful and talented musicians and speakers. Each Sunday, the sermon is recorded on both cassette tape and digitally for the website. Archived sermons are always available online. The current class of Crossways Recordings are also available online. If you are interested in helping, feel free to stop by after any service and talk to one of the sound technicians or our Worship and Music Director, Eric Peterson.

Sermon tapes are available for $1.00 from the sound booth operator or during the week in the church office. Recent Crossways lessons are also available on MP3 players from the library and church office.
