Stories & Streaming is a book club for elementary-aged children that meets on Tuesdays from 3:30 – 4:15 pm in the Close Community Room on the upper level of the Main Library.

We will focus on one children’s book at a time by listening to a book over multiple weeks. While listening, we’ll enjoy a passive activity like drawing, coloring, or a variety of other quiet projects.

After we finish listening to the book, we’ll watch its movie version while noting the similarities and differences between the book and the movie.

Hoopla and Libby, streaming services Eckhart Public Library makes available to our cardholders, will be used.

From April 1st through May 6th, we will listen to Holes by Louis Sachar. Then, on May 13th, from 3:30 – 5:30 pm we will watch the movie.

Do you ever think about Pop-Tarts when you’re looking at a light switch? Okay, maybe it’s just us. But now that we’ve mentioned it, we bet you’re realizing that light switch covers and Pop-Tarts are about the same size. Interesting, right? Well, our obsession with these toaster pastries has inspired a craft that we’re sure you’re going to enjoy.

Come to The Teen Library on Tuesday, April 22nd, at 4:30 pm to make a Pop-Tart inspired light switch cover. You’ll be able to take it home to use in your room, so that you will actually end up thinking about Pop-Tarts whenever you look at your light switch.

This program is open to teens in middle and high school.

Join us for Divine Mercy Sunday Celebration @Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Auburn!

Bring your Family & Friends!

The Lord promises that on the Feast of Divine Mercy, if you go to Confession and receive Holy Communion, you will be forgiven of your sins and all punishment for those sins is wiped away.

“Never will your soul be cleaner than it is on that day, other than your original baptism.” Jesus, I trust in you!

-This feast is celebrated on the Sunday after Easter, marking the conclusion of the Easter Octave.

-Jesus, through visions reported by St. Faustina Kowalska, promised extraordinary graces of mercy on this day.

-A plenary indulgence is a special grace that, under certain conditions, wipes away the temporal punishment due to sins that have already been forgiven.

To receive the plenary indulgence, you must:
-Go to Confession (sacramental confession)
-Receive Holy Communion
-Pray for the intentions of the Holy Father
-Be in a state of grace

Additional Notes:
-Confession can be received within 20 days before or after Divine Mercy Sunday, provided the communicant is in a state of grace for Communion.

St. Faustina Kowalska:
-St. Faustina, a Polish nun, was the recipient of visions of Jesus, who revealed to her the importance of the Feast of Divine Mercy and the promise attached to it.

Stories & Streaming is a book club for elementary-aged children that meets on Tuesdays from 3:30 – 4:15 pm in the Close Community Room on the upper level of the Main Library.

We will focus on one children’s book at a time by listening to a book over multiple weeks. While listening, we’ll enjoy a passive activity like drawing, coloring, or a variety of other quiet projects.

After we finish listening to the book, we’ll watch its movie version while noting the similarities and differences between the book and the movie.

Hoopla and Libby, streaming services Eckhart Public Library makes available to our cardholders, will be used.

From April 1st through May 6th, we will listen to Holes by Louis Sachar. Then, on May 13th, from 3:30 – 5:30 pm we will watch the movie.

Each player receives a free Singo card printed with the titles of popular songs. While Singo randomly plays song clips of “the good parts”, players can sing along and mark matching song titles on their cards.
Singo will be held inside the winery.
