“I am NOT an avid reader, but I am a lover of books. They are resources and companions on my spiritual journey. These Book Days have been my oasis, a day a month to share and be known by others, to pray and reflect, and to be challenged and stimulated. Thank you, Linda and Kathleen, for establishing safe, affordable, creative, and informative space for renewal and growth.”

~ Cindy Garis, Director, Oasis Ministries for Spiritual Development
