Congregational Read — Cedar Lane, Where Love Works

Cedar Lane All Congregation Read

Born a Crime:
Stories from a South African Childhood

In 2023, we joined a journey to collectively read, learn from and discuss Trevor Noah's memoir, Born A Crime.

There were many ways to engage in the congregational read, and we look forward to choosing another book to read together in the future.

The congregational read is open to people of all ages and abilities and our goal is to make this experience as welcoming and inclusive as possible.
