In his sermon on June 18, Pastor Chris referenced On Juneteenth, a book by Annette Gordon-Reed - a “raised in Conroe” professor, author, and historian. The book pulls together history, politics, and personal memories into several informed essays reflecting on the history of Juneteenth and “urges Texans and all Americans to reflect critically on this tangled history.”

We invite adults to join us in reading and discussing this book each evening during VBS. Please email OfficeMail@TreeChurch.net if you plan to attend. We have purchased several copies of the book for use during the class; let Jill know when you email if you need one! If you prefer to purchase your own, it is available on Amazon in hardback and Kindle formats. Used books may also be available.
