The Women’s Breakfast Book Club

The Breakfast Book Club is a group of women who gather once a month to enjoy a delicious breakfast, to read inspiring books, and have meaningful conversation. A light breakfast will be served.

We are looking forward to gathering to discuss our next book on Saturday, February 8th, 2025 from 9:00am - 10:30am. This event’s location is still to be determined.

The book we are reading for the month of November is called “Tattoos on the Heart" by Gregory Boyle.

Thirty years ago, Gregory Boyle founded Homeboy Industries, a gang-intervention, rehabilitation, and reentry program in Los Angeles, the gang capital of the world. In Tattoos on the Heart, his debut book, he distills his experience working with gang members into a breathtaking series of parables inspired by faith.

From giant, tattooed Cesar, shopping at JC Penney fresh out of prison, you learn how to feel worthy of God’s love. From ten-year-old Pipi you learn the importance of being known and acknowledged. From Lulu you come to understand the kind of patience necessary to rescue someone from the dark—as Father Boyle phrases it, we can only shine a flashlight on a light switch in a darkened room.

This is a motivating look at how to stay faithful in spite of failure, how to meet the world with a loving heart, and how to conquer shame with boundless, restorative love.
