Manteca’s Great Valley Bookfest is not to be missed! In the midst of it all, be sure to check out two of Betsy Schwarzentraub’s books. “Tossed in Time: Steering by the Christian Seasons,” a terrific family resource, and “Growing Generous Souls: Becoming Grace-Filled Stewards,” a whole library of guidance for personal and congregational spiritual growth. Look for them at the Gold Country Writers and San Joaquin Valley Writers’ booths.
