One other item of news from our meeting this week is that the GBC is participating in the Pennies for Peace program. One of our members recently read Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace, One School at a Time by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Renin and was so moved by the work she prepared labeled jars for each of us so that we may collect our change. We are also laying down the gauntlet for other bookclubs to participate.
Perhaps each of us have had to re-evaluate budgets this year; this month's meeting was a reminder that we are fortunate. Enjoy the holidays and share your pennies with someone who needs them.
