Ben Bongers is a Deacon Aspirant and is sharing his time and talents with St. Therese and St. James Parishes. He is also a published author who has shared some of his books with our community and writes a bulletin reflection once a month. He has been invited to be the first author in I. Donnelly's 118-year history to do a Book Signing at the store! He will be there on March 11, from Noon to 2 pm signing books and speaking to people who come to the store. The Books are The Saint Nicholas Society which has won 4 awards already and is up for the prestigious Mark Twain Award. True Love: 12 Christmas Stories My True Love Gave to Me is up for 6 awards, including Short Story Book of the Year. The Farmer, the Miner, and the Artisan is a children's book that retells the Nativity story, showing that we are all invited and bring our own gifts--some we know about, and many we don't.
Please stop by I. Donnelly's (6601 Troost Ave,) to support Ben at the book signing. If you have one of his books, please take it with you for the signing. Otherwise, books may be purchased at the store.
