SUMMARY:Celebrate the LAUNCH of WIDOW’S WALK with Author Jane Willan at the Congregational Church of Plantsville in CT!
DESCRIPTION:“In the inspiring novel Widow’s Walk, a church community discovers the power of compassion, faith, and coming together to heal broken hearts.” — Foreword Reviews\nJoin author Jane Willan in celebrating the release of her new novel Widow’s Walk at the Congregational Church of Plantsville, CT on Sunday, October 19th at 11am.\nBooks will be available to purchase at the event, courtesy of Riverbend Bookshop!\nAbout Widow’s Walk:\nIn the small coastal town of Sparrow, Maine, tradition runs deep—and change is rarely welcome\nWhen Reverend Miranda McCurdy becomes the new parish priest at St. Gabriel-by-the Sea, she’s determined to make a difference in her small community. But her eagerness to make the church more progressive stirs up a hornet’s nest with members of the Thanksgiving committee who don’t want to give up their long tradition of dressing like “Pilgrims and Indians,” and when a young, pregnant, Honduran woman seeks sanctuary at St. Gabe’s, the congregation’s response is not what she’d hoped. Juggling the demands of her congregation with her own solitude as a young widow, it’s hard to know if her calling to serve the church was real. When she’s faced with a vote of no confidence, followed by an offer from her former employer to head up a new upscale restaurant in Seattle, she has an easy way out, but can she walk away? A lost dog and a handsome stranger only complicate matters.\nAbout Jane Willan:\nAs the pastor of Plantsville Congregational Church in Connecticut, Jane Willan brings authenticity and warmth to her storytelling, drawing inspiration from her experiences in ministry and her love for the church’s rich liturgical traditions. She is also the author of the Sister Agatha and Father Selwyn Mystery series.\n
