MEET LIBBY!
Our Shepherd’s Library is more accessible than ever with “Libby!” This custom-curated collection of Ebooks and audiobooks is available to all Shepherd’s Library patrons and to those in the community! If you’re already a patron, get started here.
Meet Libby.
Here are simple instructions to start checking out ebooks and audiobooks from TSC Library through Libby:
- Download the Libby app on your phone or device.
- Go to “add card”. The card number must be 8 digits total. Add enough digits before your PIN number to create an 8 digit card number (ex. 00001234 or 00000123). For PIN, use just the none zero numbers of your PIN. If you have a 3 digit pin and using just those three digits doesn’t work, add a zero in front of those 3 digits and try again (ex. 0123 instead of 123).
- You’re in and can start borrowing immediately! Enjoy! Please let us know if you have questions or run into issues. Allow 24-48 hrs for a response. I hope this can be a tremendous blessing to you and yours.
Check back often as we add even more to our growing online library!

Waiting for Christmas
by Lynn Austin
For the first time in her privileged life, Adelaide Forsythe won’t be swept up in it. She couldn’t be happier about the prospect of a quieter Christmas. That’s not to say her transition from Miss to Mrs. has been without challenge. Though she doesn’t regret marrying for love instead of wealth, she can barely light the hearth or cook more than burnt toast.
Then, on the first Sunday of Advent, a young orphan boy, named Jack, enters her life and she and her husband must solve the riddle of Jack’s story. As Christmas approaches, small glimmers of wonder light the way toward the answers Adaleide seeks and the most miraculous gift of all.
