March Meeting

The February meeting of the society was a success; we welcomed two new members. The discussion was lively, but we all agreed that two chapters of Orthodoxy was too much to cover in an hour.

The next meeting is scheduled for March 13 at 7:00 at the rectory. We'll be discussing chapter 4 of the work.

January meeting

To start off 2011, the St. Sebastian Chesterton Society will begin Orthodoxy. In order to help keep us all on the same page, the membership present at the December meeting decided that everyone should use the same edition, published by Ignatius Press. It is available directly from the press, or through Amazon.

The January meeting will be January 9 at 7:00 PM in the rectory. We will be discussing the first chapter or Orthodoxy. (If you're feeling heretical and not yet convinced you should commit to Orthodoxy, the first chapter is available in Amazon's "Look Inside" feature.)

November Meeting

The October meeting of the society went well. Four members attended, and the discussion at first focused on ignorance about the Middle Ages (as GK wrote about in the selection for the month) and continued with ignorance in general. It was a lively meeting.

The November meeting will take place November 14 at 7:00 PM. The good Fathers Valencheck and Pfeiffer have once again extended their hospitality and offered to host the meeting at the rectory. John Anderson will select the month's reading.

In addition, the group also discussed the possibility of starting a more ambitious reading project, perhaps Orthodoxy, through the winter months. Any advice or feedback will be appreciated.
