If I Could Form An OFFLINE Club


I love my online Share-Care-Prayer Club; don't get me wrong on that. However, I'd also love to be able to form one of those clubs where people get together in person, but that isn't possible for me.  I'm unable to travel, or even walk outside (except on my porch) unless I hold onto somebody's arm, and my own attached house is too small to accommodate a group of people.
However, if I could form an offline club, it might be a reading club; these are quite popular.  Mine would be a Books and Tapes Club.   This would allow people with dyslexia, or with visual problems, to join if they wanted to.  Now and then, ALL
members would listen to a tape.  We would then discuss, not only the book itself, but how well or poorly it was read.
Then again, I might start a Sunday Night Lunch Club for fans of
Maud Hart Lovelace's "Betsy-Tacy" series.  The  SNLC would meet on Sunday evenings, preferably if the next day was a holiday.  Members would take turns hosting.  Sandwiches and coffee would be served, and, if available, songs from the Betsy-Tacy books would be played and/or sung. 

Or I might form a club for making rosaries; members would also pray the rosary at each meeting.

I said (wrote) that I can't have an offline club.  What I should have said is that I can't have an offline club at this time.  Perhaps someday I will be able to have one.

Encouraging news about EWTN's Fr. Anthony

Fr. Anthony hopes to be back on the air in the near future.  Oh, HOW I'm praying for that to happen! https://franciscanmissionaries.c...
