The Viroqua UMC Book Group is joining the 3 episode series of the Declaration Book Club over the summer months.

Thomas Jefferson was the principal author of the Declaration of Independence, which created the United States. To celebrate the Declaration’s 250th anniversary on July 4, 2026, Monticello has launched Declaration Book Club, featuring short readings, lively videos, and probing questions to spark discussion of our past, present, and future as one people, created equal. What did Jefferson and his cosigners declare in 1776—and how do we pursue life, liberty, and happiness today?

All are invited to join this study. Discussion meetings will be held at the church, (221 S Center Ave in Viroqua), at 7:00 pm.

Meeting 1: 1776 — held on June 8th.
Meeting 2: 1826 (the 50th anniversary of the Declaration) — held on July 13th.
Meeting 3: Legacies (legacy & influence throughout history) — held on August 10th.

For more information go to www.monticello.org/bookclub.

A three-part reading and discussion tool kit designed for learners of all ages to delve into the enduring principles of the Declaration of Independence.

June Online Study
The Lord’s Prayer — The Heart of Prayer

We were taught it early on in Sunday School. We memorized it as youth. And many of us say it every Sunday during worship. It’s the Lord’s Prayer. But yet, do we truly understand it and its purpose? Sometimes, it can feel like just a ritual we do but it is so much more!

Join us in June as we discover the heart of prayer and work on a deeper connection with God. Together, we’ll learn that the Lord’s Prayer (and prayer in general) isn’t just a ritual. It’s our daily doorway into God’s heart. The key is in your hands. Will you unlock and open that door?

Our June online study focusing on the Lord’s Prayer starts on Monday, June 1st and lasts the entire month. Join us at any time. All are welcome to participate.

The Lord’s Prayer (30 days) – starts June 1st. https://bible.com/reading-plans/62779/together/80402343/invitation?token=Dgjcb6Ah1cGdlLu9mm3D0g&source=share
