Space in each track is limited, so be sure to register early—we’ll try to place every child in their first choice, but they’ll also select a second option in case their first track fills up.

The Ridgecrest Women’s Book Club is a welcoming group for women 18 and older who enjoy Christian fiction. We read books spanning from Bible times to the present day.

Our meetings include a discussion of the monthly book, followed by fellowship time with a dessert provided by one member. Whether you loved, disliked, or didn’t read the book, you’re always welcome to join the conversation and enjoy the fellowship.

We post our annual reading list and send bi-monthly emails to keep everyone updated. Most members borrow books from the library, while others prefer to buy or use a Kindle.
