Some of the best books I've read are from the Mennonite publishing companies. I just love them! There is a lending library that has a lot of these books in Myerstown, PA, which I would love to use. But I live in the South. My family is from Lebanon County. I have thought about getting the Daughters of Promise magazine too but haven't yet.

The books were written by Maryann Minatra, The Alcott Legacy. Because it's been a while, I can't remember if it's a "must" to read the first two books (The Tapestry and The Masterpiece) in order to make sense of book number three (The Heirloom). Thanks for sharing all the book info and ideas of late. I just finished reading "Talking to Strangers" and The Road Back To You, both very interesting.Priscilla F.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-30876321217967442182021-03-01T18:32:35.355-05:002021-03-01T18:32:35.355-05:00Hi Gina, I live in Australia and have been followi...Hi Gina, I live in Australia and have been following your blog and praying for your family from afar for over 3 years. I love this challenge idea so I am joining in and will be interested to see what books we all choose. I have read books by several of the women missionaries already so I will be looking for something new. Thanks for posting on this.

I've been wanting to read Let Me Die in Ireland. I would like to try some of the challenges listed.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188723188448901080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-42011191525275084312021-03-01T11:22:20.284-05:002021-03-01T11:22:20.284-05:00I never understood the fighting between Protestant...I never understood the fighting between Protestant and Catholic Ireland - until I read Trinity by Leon Uris. The appalling abuse of power and privilege still resonates within me. (I was Catholic at the time I read it.) Tomie De Paola wrote and illustrated a children's book about St. Patrick that is quite good. You could tie in family books with learning to make a nice Irish meal! Irish Soda Bread? Corned Beef and Cabbage? Shepherd's Pie? Listen to some Irish music. Learn a few words of Gaelic. Wear green on the 17th!Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00228549552211394610noreply@blogger.com
