For our August meeting one of the book clubs I am in read "Three Cups Of Tea" by Greg Mortinson and David Oliver Relin. It's really an amazing book, a very quick read and I've thought about it a lot since I finished it.
It turns out that their book tour is stopping here in Traverse City this month and a friend of mine picked up a couple of tickets to Greg Mortinson's presentation! I'm really excited to be able to see him speak.
For those of you who are local and have read or will read the book, the event with Greg Mortinson at the Opera House on Sept 21st is sold out but if you still want to support Greg Mortinson's work - the next weekend there will be a benefit tea for the Central Asia Institute (the organization that builds the schools talked about in the book) at Grace Episcopal Church.
It's Saturday Sept. 27th from 2-5pm at Grace Episcopal (341 Washington St.), ticket are $10 and are available at the door and all of the profits go to the Central Asia Institute. There will be door prizes.
The event is sponsored by The Potter's House, UCC
