Upcoming Special Events
Chris Cross, author of Beat the Drum for Justice will visit FCC!
Date: Sunday, November 23rd
Time: 11:30 a.m.
​
This fall, on November 23rd, Christopher Cross will be joining us to visit about his book Beat the Drum for Justice. Chris is a former County Judge in Arapahoe County. His book is a historically accurate work of fiction that is very engaging and with well-developed characters.
The story begins around the time of the Dred Scott decision in 1857. The main protagonist is a young boy whose family is engaged in the work of the underground railroad in Ohio. The story follows his life as he pursues justice: First through the underground railroad; as a soldier in the Civil War; and, finally as a lawyer struggling against a Supreme Court unwilling to give meaning to the 13th 14th and 15th amendments.
Lunch will be served following the 10 a.m. service and Chris will engage us in a discussion afterward. This is a great opportunity to invite others from the community to join us!
We now have two copies of the book in the office that are available to check out. It is also available for free for Kindle Unlimited members, and you should ask for the Library district to order it for their stacks. On the day of the event, you are encouraged to bring your book for Chris to sign!
