Women's Ministry September Book Club

The Women's Ministry September Book Club will be held at 7:00 PM on Tuesday, September 23. The group will be meeting in person. Location to be announced. This month's book is The American Queen by Vanessa Miller.

There is only one known queen who truly ruled a kingdom on American soil—meet the queen of Happy Land. The American Queen is transformative and breathtakingly honest, based on actual events that took place between 1865 and 1889. It uncovers the unsung history of a Black woman who built a kingdom in Appalachia, creating a refuge for courageous people who dared to dream of a different way of life. This book is the winner of the 2024 American Fiction Award for African American Fiction and Historical Fiction, as well as the 2025 Audie Award for Best Faith-Based Fiction or Non-Fiction.
