    The LPSH on February 12th will feature Irwin Larrier, a dedicated leader with a dual role as the Executive Director at the Center for Community Justice in Elkhart, Indiana, and as an Associate Pastor at The Grace Place in South Bend.  Larrier will read Wally and Freya by Lindsley Pointer and Stella Mongodi. This is an ALL-AGES story hour, meaning all are welcome to come experience this moving, incredibly important book.

                      

    This is open and free to the general public but registration requested. 

    The LPSH is not a fundraiser, it’s a consciousness raiser! Ruthmere invites a member of the community to read an age-appropriate children’s book to children and their families. But this is a story hour with a specific purpose. These stories are reflections of each reader’s distinct background, and communicate the values of diversity, unity and liberty. 

    Every child receives a Lincoln Penny souvenir in a keepsake jacket as a reminder of why this experience is important.

    This LPSH Event Sponsor is Centier Bank.

    About Wally & Freya:

    A heartwarming picture book that teaches empathy and inclusion.

    Everyone knows Wally is a bully. He steals lunch every day from Bella Jo the bear, calls Oliver the owl mean names, and never shares the crayons. So when the other animals decide to write a story together and the notebook disappears, there is little doubt that Wally has taken it.

    But what the animals don't know is why Wally acts the way he does. As they unravel the mystery of the missing notebook, they also begin to understand Wally, which leads to a surprising and joyous discovery. 

    This sweet story teaches children empathy and the amazing power of kindness and inclusion. The first in a new series on restorative justice practices for kids, this book is sure to delight children and grownups alike.

    Join us for an evening of fun and adventure at Ruthmere where you help unravel a murder on March 22, 2025, in partnership with Murder by Design! Our theme will be "Aces and Eight Balls" (1920s speakeasy) and attendees are strongly encouraged to dress up to match the mood. This year, you will attend the dinner as one of the suspects. 

    You are given a character to play as well as a history of who you are, including tidbits and rumors about your fellow guests. During the dinner, you get to know everyone, share what you know and find out what you can. You will need this to establish a motive... for murder. This three-hour event will include food, drink, great company and an entertaining show for all.

    ...Who knows, you may be the murderer and not know it!

    PLEASE NOTE: Prop guns Will be used as part of the performance!"

    This is a 21 years and older event. Admission is $85 per person, which includes your food, drink and souvenir photograph.
