A no-charge guided tour provides details about the architecture, aesthetics and resources of the 17,000 square foot library and a stone chapel. Artifacts in the library include: an original Dead Sea Scroll fragment display, a Qumran Scroll jar, two stone tablets, two early King James Bibles and a C.S. Lewis collection.

After the tour, will journey over to The Rib Tickler Restaurant for a relaxing lunch. The menu includes salads and a variety of wood-smoked BBQ items. All the sides are “made from scratch” creating a farm-to-fork experience.

Shirley Dukes (936) 760-8655. We will meet at the church at 9:00-

9:15 a.m. Travel refreshments will be provided! The cost of the tour
