 COOKBOOKS FOR SALE!!   COOKBOOKS FOR SALE!!!!!

We still have about 175 cookbooks left for sale!  If you can help us sell them, we would be most grateful.  If you have friends through book clubs, social clubs, quilting clubs, school friends, craft fairs, etc., please try to sell them as they will make wonderful Christmas presents.  Now that things have slowed down a bit, through the rest of October and November, we will not be selling in the Narthex.  If you need to purchase cookbooks, just contact us; we will be happy to get the books to you.  If you have a business and would like to display the cookbooks, we will also be happy to set that up for you.  We have paid off the publishing costs and the money we make from here on out will go directly to the library at Grace.
