After church service today, a boot sale on the church premises had many interesting things to offer. There were books, clothes, artwork, bookmarks, lunch, Sri Lankan goodies, and many more. Proceeds of sale will benefit the Women's Fellowship which initiated an outreach to women prisoners. The prison ministry is raising money for teen girls who are incarcerated in the city jail. There are teenagers as young as 13 languishing behind bars and some 50 babies/children being raised by convicted mothers inside the jail, too. It all sounds depressing.
Anyway, while looking around I was able to pick up some books, mostly old but still good as new. Many are published by Operation Mobilization. The ships MV Doulos and MV Logos operate under this ministry. Our pastor Gary Dean and his wife Sue of Cinnamon Gardens Baptist Church, are connected with OM.
Here are the books I picked up for RS200 only each (around P90 Philippine Pesos each) now lined up for my next reads.
