We know a lot about the Founding Fathers who signed the Declaration of Independence, battled the British, and framed the Constitution. But history has largely forgotten the wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters who supported and encouraged these men. Our book for May is about them in Founding Mothers: The Women who Raised our Nation, by Cokie Roberts.
Book Club meets today at 1:00 in the Sunday school classroom. We'll discuss last month's book and receive next month’s book Founding Mothers. Come join us for lively discussions and friendship!
