One of Fair Oaks’ many adult gathering opportunities is the Book Group, which generally meets at 7 pm on the fourth Tuesday of each month during the program year. The group selects both fiction and non-fiction works that aspire to offer insights into our faith and meets in homes to allow for more relaxed fellowship. Contact the church office for host information and any questions.
Copies of books are available at the main branch of the Oak Park Public Library one month in advance of each meeting—simply ask the front desk for the FOPC book group selection.
