“The Last Runaway,” Book Club Forum April 6th

On Sunday, April 6th at 10:00, members of Old Haverford Meeting’s Worship and Ministry Committee will lead a discussion of Trace Chevalier’s “The Last Runaway.”

Honor Bright, the main character, is a Quaker who leaves England for America. She lands in Ohio in 1850 and inadvertently gets involved with the Underground Railroad. It is a story about faith, love, family, friendship, conviction, and forging one’s individual path, often independently from family and community.

Please read the book so you can join the discussion. If you don’t want to buy it you may be able to get it from the library, or there will be a few copies available in the Meetinghouse to sign out. Ask Jana Llewellyn at

for more details.

See you on April 6th at 10:00 at Old Haverford Friend Meeting. Forum will be followed by Meeting for Worship at 11:00.
