Book of the Month November and December 2024
The Book of the Month for both November and December of 2024 will be A World UNDONE: Finding God When Life Doesn’t Make Sense by Fr. Mike Schmitz. This book is definitely the shortest book we’ve ever had for Book of the Month here at Our Lady of the Visitation, but it should not be underestimated in value in its lowly 64 pages of length. Fr. Mike Schmitz, who has become very popular through his online YouTube videos and longer talks at retreats or conferences, delivers an insightful and meaning-filled little book that will not only make you think and pray, but packs a punch of raw honesty about our faith and the hard questions we need to grapple with every day. Please consider joining others in our parish in either reading this book over these two months as we approach the end of the Church year (the liturgical year) as well as during the beginning of the next Church year with Advent and heading into Christmas. You will have to purchase the book online yourself for these two months, and if you can’t read it for any reason, please still come to our discussion meeting, which will be held on Wednesday, January 8th from 7:30 – 8:30 pm in the social hall. I will do my best to summarize my favorite parts and try to help everyone engage in some good discussion into the room as well. Thank you again, and God Bless you.
