Book Club

In an effort to expand our horizons with respect to an environment of mutual understanding and diversity, SEF begins a monthly meeting series to discuss various subjects in the light of prominent books. Each meeting will be highlighted by the leadership of an individual to focus the discussion. The reviews for the books discussed in the meetings will also be made available online after each meeting for others to access. At this point, we do not have a long list of books for review; instead, we want the SEF community and the participants in the meetings to shape the future list of books to be reviewed. Hence, provided that the books do not offend particular faiths and members of faiths, and provide insights as to how we might further cooperate, we are open to suggestions. Please contact us regarding your questions and suggestions.
