PURPLE HIBISCUS
by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
From the bestselling author of Americanah and We Should All Be Feminists, fifteen-year-old Kambili and her older brother Jaja lead a privileged life in Enugu, Nigeria. They live in a beautiful house, with a caring family, and attend an exclusive missionary school. They're completely shielded from the troubles of the world. Yet, as Kambili reveals in her tender-voiced account, things are less perfect than they appear. Although her Papa is generous and well respected, he is fanatically religious and tyrannical at home—a home that is silent and suffocating. As the country begins to fall apart under a military coup, Kambili and Jaja are sent to their aunt, a university professor outside the city, where they discover a life beyond the confines of their father's authority. Books cram the shelves, curry and nutmeg permeate the air, and their cousins' laughter rings throughout the house. When they return home, tensions within the family escalate, and Kambili must find the strength to keep her loved ones together. Purple Hibiscus is an exquisite novel about the emotional turmoil of adolescence, the powerful bonds of family, and the bright promise of freedom. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Christian education MISSION
Christian Education at Northeastern over the years has fulfilled its mission in a variety of ways to enhance the spiritual growth of the members and of the extended community through many activities. Because we are a congregation in which African Americans predominate, our focus in all of these activities is on the ways in which African American history and culture have influenced our religious heritage.
We are currently holding many of our meetings and activities on a virtual platform or by conference call due to the pandemic.
If you are interested in participating in any of these activities, don’t hesitate to call the church office for the most current contact information. We welcome new members--both virtually and in person!
Whether in current or past activities, Northeastern Presbyterian Church continues to support Christian Education based on African American multicultural experiences. We welcome all to join us as we prayerfully work towards our goals.
