So what’s Bunco?
Bunco is a dice game with twelve or more players, divided into groups of four, trying to score points while taking turns rolling three dice in a series of six rounds. A bunco is achieved when a person rolls three-of-a-kind and all three numbers match the round number which is decided at the beginning of the round. Video of how Bunco is played — view below

The Divine Proverb of Streusel by Sara Brunsvold
Wednesday January 15, 2025 — 6:30 - 8:00 p.m.
Meeting in the NEW downstairs conference room

The Divine Proverb of Streusel
Shaken by her parents' divorce and discouraged by the growing chasm between herself and her serious boyfriend, Nikki Werner seeks solace at her uncle's farm in a small Missouri hamlet. She'll spend the summer there, picking up the pieces of her shattered present so she can plan a better future. But what awaits her at the ancestral farm is a past she barely knows.

Among her late grandmother's belongings, Nikki finds an old notebook filled with handwritten German recipes and wise sayings pulled from the book of Proverbs. With each recipe she makes, she invites locals to the family table to hear their stories about the town's history, her ancestors--and her estranged father.

What started as a cathartic way to connect to her heritage soon becomes the means through which she learns how the women before her endured--with the help of their cooking prowess. Nikki realizes how delicious streusel with a healthy dollop of faith can serve as a guide to heal wounds of the past.

For the Glory: The Untold and Inspiring Story of Eric Liddell, Hero of Chariots of Fire
by Duncan Hamilton
Our fall book will be the inspiring story of Olympic athlete and Christian missionary
Eric Liddell, hero of Chariots of Fire.
Sunday, October 6th — 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. in Zion’s Fellowship Hall
Bring a luncheon dish to pass!

Many people will remember Eric Liddell as the Olympic gold medalist from the Academy Award winning film Chariots of Fire. Famously, Liddell would not run on Sunday because of his strict observance of the Christian sabbath, and so he did not compete in his signature event, the 100 meters, at the 1924 Paris Olympics. He was the greatest sprinter in the world at the time, and his choice not to run was ridiculed by the British Olympic committee, his fellow athletes, and most of the world press. Yet Liddell triumphed in a new event, winning the 400 meters in Paris.
