DOWNLOAD EBOOK"God makes promises and keeps them, and these promises are about love for us. During every challenge, every disappointment, I have held on to this." Carolyn Woo grew up in Hong Kong, a city of refugees who had fled from the communist government in China, as her own parents had done. Relatives crashed on their couches and brutal stories of Red Guards filtered through, but the ferment of the time fueled a drive to create opportunities. Wasting no time, Carolyn earned her doctorate in the United States and eventually became the highly successful dean of the Mendoza School of Business at Notre Dame. And then Catholic Relief Services offered her the position of CEO and President of the global humanitarian arm of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. Initially not interested, Carolyn eventually accepted the position for which her faith, education, business experience and personal background uniquely equipped her. Working for a Better World is an engrossing account not only of Dr. Woo's own life, but of the ongoing critical work of CRS in meeting the needs of the poor, the traumatized, and the needy throughout the world. From typhoon-flattened cities in the Philippines to earthquake-devastated Haiti, CRS is there before the TV cameras arrive and there after they leave. And there in over 100 countries-helping subsistence farmers and health-care workers, orphans and refugees-in those neglected places where the cameras never come. We must be "docile and attentive to the cry of the poor and to come to their aid," Pope Francis has said. And in doing so, Dr. Woo affirms, "we never know when or how we will encounter God."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the mid-nineties, Russell Frank left a peaceful life in rural California to raise three kids in a town saturated with fraternities, late-night undergrad fast food haunts, and rowdy football crowds. Among the Woo People recounts his two decades living—and surviving—in State College, Pennsylvania, the often-chaotic home of Penn State University. This humorous peek at life in a college town smack-dab in the middle of rural Pennsylvania chronicles a changing community over the course of two eventful decades. A professor of journalism, former columnist for the Centre Daily Times, and contributor to StateCollege.com, Frank has a unique perspective on living in the shadow of a university—especially on the tribe of nomadic young adults known as the “Woo people,” so named for their signature mode of celebratory communication. He invites readers into the routines of his hectic household as they embrace their new home, skewers the culture of intercollegiate sports, relates the challenges and peculiarities of teaching at one of the nation’s largest universities, and, most important, teaches us to be amused at college-kid antics and to appreciate their academic and real-world accomplishments, even as we anxiously tick off the days until semester’s end. From tales of missing porch furniture and red plastic cups in the bushes to a “Nude Year’s Eve” run by an octet of forty-somethings to the sweet relief of summer, Frank’s hilarious, insightful essays are indispensable for anyone who wants to survive, appreciate, and enjoy college-town life.

As any child with a pet will tell you, there is a bond of compassion that exists between them. Reading these stories will help you understand why animals have a place in this world. Parents, read these stories with your children. I'm sure Dr. Woo would approve. Wait! Who's Dr. Woo? Start with the first story and become acquainted with him. He'll introduce you to a new way of looking at the world. Born in 1926 and reared in Chicago, Patrick W. Rosseter became a journeyman printer-typesetter, following his father's footsteps, after coming home from the Army Air Corps. He's been married for 49 years - the 50th will be on Valentine's Day in '09. He has fathered three sons and a daughter and is the greatest "Grampa" to four illustrious grandsons, without whose encouragement these stories would never have came to be.

Michael ends up in prison, but while there, he makes the decision to change his life. He writes down the story of his past; once his sentence is over, things take a decidedly upward swing. Michael chronicles his life in a memoir, and his book sells nearly one million copies. He can’t believe his own luck, but he is happy to have turned a bad situation into a lucrative enterprise. He might have gone on living the clean life—but then he steps into Davie’s Bar-n-Grill, where he meets four beautiful women who are prepared to tear his world apart. Monica Sinclair is the ringleader; the other girls follow her lead. They’ve made a sport of seducing and ruining men, just for the fun of it. Michael has become their newest target, and he soon finds himself trapped in a seductive web of lust, deception, and murder. Will past indiscretions finally catch up with the girls this time, or will Michael end up another broken, battered victim of their cruel game?
