    Thought you might be interested -- i recently met a man who went to college with Jim Elliot at Wheaton -- (and this man has been a missionary to the Philippines for 30-40 years-- he returns every year for a teaching ministry. Unfortunately, I cannot pull his name out of my head at the moment ) It was so much fun hering him share about "Jim" as a college student and about his testimony and his love for people. And added to that, was to hear about this man's long career with the Philippines and a Bible college there.

    here's what i found about the book, "Poland":
    Like the heroic land that is its subject, James Michener's POLAND teems with vivid events and unforgettble characters. In the sweeping span of eight tumultuous centuries, three Polish families live out their destinies and the drama of a nation--in the grand tradition of a great James Michener saga.
    "POLAND is a monumental effort, a magnificent guide to a better understanding of the country's tribulations."

    Hi. The Flips Flipping Pages has another book discussion coming up. Hope you can attend. thanks!

    Finoy Foodies - June Book Discussion

    Because we love food second to books (order of importance may change depending on time of day), the Flippers will tackle a culinary theme this June. To narrow down the countless choices of books, we zoom in on Filipino food.

    See you all
    on June 20, 2009. Saturday. 2PM
    at Katre Mediterranean Restaurant, 103 Dr. Lascano St. Brgy. Laging Handa, Quezon City
