Reading at the Wade
Saturday mornings
This book discussion group, facilitated by Dr. Rolland Hein (professor emeritus of English at Wheaton College), meets at the Wade Center on Saturday mornings from 10:00am - 11:00am during the school year. The reading group is now over, and will start up again in September. The group discussed George MacDonald's Paul Faber, Surgeon, (a sequel to Thomas Wingfold, Curate) and G.K.

Classics Reading Group
Wednesday afternoons
The Wade Center also hosts a Classics Reading Group on Wednesday afternoons from 2:00pm - 3:00pm during the school year. This book discussion group explores books beyond those written by the Wade Center's seven authors. This year, the group will begin meeting on Wednesday, January 9, 2013 and end on April 24. The texts for reading and discussion are: 25 Books Every Christian Should Read by Richard Foster and others, and Les Misérables by Victor Hugo. This reading group is free and open to anyone who would like to participate, but sign-up is required due to space considerations.
To sign up for the Classics Reading Group, or for more information, contact the Wade Center front desk at 630-752-5908 or at wade@wheaton.edu.
