The Library Ministry offers print and visual resources for intellectual and spiritual growth for all ages. The library also joins and assists other ministries to present creative opportunities for worship, education, service, outreach and fellowship. The FLC Library is open whenever the church is open. Items can be checked out through the self-service process. On Sunday morning, volunteers staff the church Library.

How Does Library Lamb Reading Works?
1. Check out First Lutheran Church Library Book.
2. Preferably read with your family.
3. List your book on the Library Lambs Response form.
4. Return check-outs on or before their due date.
5. Submit the Library Lambs Response form on or before the Third Sunday of Lent.
6. A response form listing 1 to 22 books qualifies the reader in the participation drawing for the child’s Library Lamb age group. Only one response form per child will be counted in the participation drawing.
7. All response forms with 22 books listed are entered in a special drawing for active readers. (Repeated Books or DVDs do not count.)
8. New This Year—memorize a Bible verse. Each response form has a selected Bible verse on it that Library Lambs will be asked to memorize. They can recite it to selected staff members and will then be eligible for a drawing.
the world of literature is rich, thought provoking, and entertaining—and the practice of reading and sharing stories together can help create family times that you’ll remember forever. Encourage the pleasure of reading with your family by introducing yourself and your children to the library at First Lutheran Church. The library is free, and full of fine, uplifting books for children and adults to check out and read. And the Library Lambs Reading program is a great way to get started.

Check It Out! One of the FLC library’s recent and most stirring discoveries is the book, My Journey by Ruth Garn Werner. Ruth is a member here at First Lutheran Church. This living history includes life accounts before, during, and after World War II. Ruth’s observations of her life is a testimony of hope and a memoir for everyone. The time frame from 1927 to 1958 put many world events in a personal perspective. If you would like more information, please contact Barbara Siebelts at (605) 339-1983, extension 43.
What are Book Talks? When a group of people meet to discuss a book and express their opinions, likes, and dislikes, it is a Book Talk. With Book Talks there is no expectation to attend more than one discussion unlike a book club. Book Talks are as different in format as the presenters or discussion leaders and the books they choose. Most often held on First Lutheran Church campus, some Book Talks may meet in private homes, cafes or restaurants, or as a blog on the First Lutheran Church web. Look for more details in the bulletins, First Word, and Book Blog on the FLC web site. Contact: Barbara Siebelts (605) 339-1983, ext. 43, or bsiebelts [at] flcsf [dot] org for further information.
The goal of this club is to read the Bible in a Year! There has been talk of a Bible Reading Club taking place starting in January 2010. If you are interested and want more details, please contact Barbara Siebelts (605) 339-1983, ext. 43, or bsiebelts [at] flcsf [dot] org for further information.
