Three Cups of Tea


In August our book club read "Three Cups of Tea" by Greg Mortinson and David Oliver Relin. It turns out that it was also the annual book for TC Reads this year and that means that the author comes to town to speak! A friend of mine was smart enough to grab tickets to the TC Reads event one day at the library so we could go hear Greg Mortinson speak about his work and his organization the Centra Asia Institute. The event sold out very quickly.
It was really interesting to hear him speak. Amazing how much has been accomplished and amazing how many children there still are that need schools just in that one part of the world. If you haven't read this book yet or heard about the organization I highly recomend checking them out.
