Joanie Lindenmeyer has achieved the great accomplishment of writing 3 books in two years 鈥� and a theme that spans all three of them is 鈥淟ove Always Wins鈥�.

In this presentation Lindenmeyer will touch on all 3 of her books, but will be focusing mostly on her second book, Joyously Free. This book aims to encourage LBGTQ+ people to find courage to live their truths, and the book provides solid guidance for parents and allies to love and support individuals on their rainbow journeys.

This presentation will include readings, discussions, and a Q&A. At the end of the program patrons will be given the opportunity to purchase copies of Lindenmeyer鈥檚 works. Copies will also be available in the collection for checkout. Patrons will also leave with a sense of joy and positivity from Lindenmeyer鈥檚 infectious positive energy.

Joanie Lindemeyer is 66 years young, a former Sister of St. Joseph of Carondelet Catholic nun who is now an Episcopalian with St. Timothy鈥檚. Joanie serves on the church vestry and in the local community in many ways that include speaking about and promoting LGBTQ+ inclusion.

Join us at the Medford Library every third Tuesday for an evening of poetry and community! All are welcome to share their original poetry or be part of a supportive audience. Whether you are seasoned at poetry performance or want to try it for the first time, we will be ready to hear your amazing words! Each open mic will have a theme that you are welcome to gain inspiration from, but following the theme is not required. Located in the Large Meeting Room on the first floor.

Once a month, read and discuss a banned book. Explore what caused these books to be banned, what being banned means, and how this impacts us as a society. We will talk about the who and the why, and if we agree or disagree. Stop by the Medford Reference desk to pick up a copy of the month's current title while supplies last!
