Fictionalized details from the life of the author's own grandmother inspire this tale of an Italian American family and the complicated woman at its heart, Stella Fortuna. SJCPL Online Book Club: The Seven or Eight Deaths of Stella Fortuna by Juliet Grames Grames's vivid and moving debut follows its heroine from a childhood in the early 20th century in a tiny Calabrian mountain village, to her family's immigration to America when she is 19. Beautiful, smart, and unyielding, Stella Fortuna grows up in a mountain village in early 20th-century Italy, where she is suspected of being cursed. The family immigrates to America before World War II, and Stella continues protecting not-as-sharp little sister Tina, with their estrangement in old age framing the narrative. The Seven or Eight Deaths of Stella Fortuna is available in print, ebook, and eaudiobook formats.

The presentation also showcases local women who have contributed to the growth of the South Bend region, making a positive difference in the community we know today.

A graduate from Baylor University, David Phelps is credited among today's most spectacular voices. His seemingly endless vocal range, which extends more than three octaves, coupled with his gift for communicating a song, has brought the house down in the world's most prestigious venues. For more than 15 years, David served as a member of the popular and prestigious Gaither Vocal Band, and during that time received numerous Dove Awards, Grammy Awards, and multiple platinum-selling recording projects. As a solo artist, he received 2009 Dove Award nominations for Male Vocalist of the Year and Long Form Video for the Christmas DVD, O Holy Night to add to his many awards and honors. David's 2012 live concert DVD, David Phelps: Classic, debuted on Billboards' Music Video Chart at #1 and since its release has received acclaim from throughout both Gospel and secular music genres. The recording has been featured on numerous television networks, including the Public Broadcasting System (PBS). In 2015, David released the recording, Freedom. The Freedom companion DVD also debuted at #1 on Billboards' Music Video Chart. Most recently, in April of 2017, The Best of David Phelps: from the Homecoming Series, peaked at #1 on Billboard's Music Video Sales Chart, topping such popular video releases as The Beatles' Eight Days A Week and Eric Clapton's Live In San Diego, as well as Adele's Live At The Royal Albert Hall. That same week, David's Freedom video sat in the top 20. In 2017, David released his latest recording, Hymnal. Throughout the recording, David lends his artistry to some of the most treasured hymns of the church. The recording showcases masterful vocals and lush arrangements as each song takes the listener on a journey of inspiration and worship in song. Growing up in a musical family, his natural gift for song was evident when he was very young. Even as he sang in church as a teenager, he knew that he wanted to be a performer. At the age of 18, while earning his degree in vocal performance from Baylor University, David began what would be a life-long passion of traveling around the world to share music, inspiration and good news. While studying music at Baylor, David met Lori Purtle, who has been his wife and rock-solid partner in his career for more than two decades. The couple has four great kids - Callie, Maggie Beth, Grant and Coby - and the Phelps family resides on their farm outside Nashville, Tennessee.

City of South Bend Venues Parks & Arts

Experience the beauty of Elbel Golf Course and Park. This magnificent property, consisting of 320 acres, is the city’s largest. At Elbel, you’ll find wetlands, forest, shallow lakes, and an abundance of wildlife, including deer, reptiles and amphibians, sandhill cranes, pileated woodpeckers, and other species of birds and mammals. The park also contains other attractions, like rolling hills, majestic trees, and former kettle lakes. The glacial footprint is evident even today. Join us for this free hike along the lake and into the woods. Since the public generally doesn’t hike in this park and golf course, there are no established trails leading to the uplands where we will explore. Because of this, the footing is tricky, as we’ll periodically travel along a steep, muddy and slippery hillsides while stepping over various obstacles (branches, logs, and large rocks). Due to the footing, this hike will be challenging for small kids and those with compromised mobility. In the case of heavy rain, strong winds, or thunderstorms, the hike will be cancelled. On the day of the hike, sturdy shoes or hiking boots, along with insect repellent, is recommended. We’ll meet outside the golf course clubhouse. In accordance with recommended guidelines from the CDC, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we require that all participants wear a face covering during the program and practice social distancing. You must register for this program. Maximum 20 participants. This event is free! As VPA continues to evaluate the situation for the next few weeks, please note that all information subject to change with minimal notice.
