2025 Summer Reading List
Summer has arrived, and we are excited to release the HP Pres summer reading list once again!
The HP Pres pastoral staff compiled a list of books to keep people connected to our church family and engaged in our faith over the summer months. We know that “for everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven” (Ecclesiastes 3:1). No matter the season, we are excited to help create opportunities for you to grow in your faith!
