The members of the Christ the King Junior High Power of the Pen Team invite any parishioner who loves to write poetry to join us on Wednesday evenings beginning October 26 from 7-8:30 PM in the school library. We will review the basics of poetry writing, brainstorming and writing exercises, examine published poems and then create, share and edit our own. Our overall topic is the Good News throughout the Liturgical calendar, beginning with the Feast of Christ the King, through Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, the Passion, Easter and Pentecost. Our purpose is to spread the Good News through poetry. Our goal is the creation of a book of poems on this topic to be published in June, 2012. Moderator is 6th grade teacher Cindy Roberts (author C.M. Millen) and participation is open to all. No charge, but please bring a pencil and paper and an openness to share writing and care about others as well . Previous experience not necessary. Anyone (even outside of our parish) interested in our topic is very welcome to join us. The Good News is meant to be written about and shared by all.
