Shifting Stats Shaking The Church

40 Canadian Churches Respond

By: Karen Stiller,Patricia Paddey

2016 Word Guild Book of the Year in Culture. Canada is home to one of the most multi-ethnic, multicultural, multi-religious populations on the planet and we're facing some of the most significant upheavals in our nation's history. So what does this mean for Christ's church? Shifting Stats offers a fresh take and a hopeful outlook on the Canadian church. Hope is found in these 40 stories of real churches across our nation. These Christians are responding creatively to the shifting landscape. They are changing communities-becoming invaluable neighbours-and helping to build the kingdom of God. If you're active in one of Canada's many thousands of congregations-as a leader or a layperson-you'll find Shifting Stats to be an effective and helpful resource. This book will serve to inform, inspire, encourage and motivate you to respond with resilience and simple authenticity wherever God has placed you.

The Game Changers

True Stories about Saving Mothers and Babies in East Africa

By: Jean Chamberlain Froese,Patricia Paddey

The Game Changers is a passionate wake-up call to recognize and rectify a daily tragedy and a global injustice. In the developing world, 300,000 women and girls die during childbirth each year--needlessly, and often agonizingly, from preventable causes. From the frontlines in East Africa, obstetrician Dr. Jean Chamberlain Froese (recognized with the Order of Canada for her humanitarian work) and journalist Patricia Paddey share compelling stories about new initiatives that are empowering women and girls, and changing the social fabric. From her firsthand experiences working to save the lives of mothers and babies in the Majority World, "Dr. Jean" (as she is known internationally) realized that more foreign aid would never stop the pointless losses. Only a complete reversal in attitudes could tackle the complex web of causes; only by confronting the problem on many fronts and "changing the whole game" could the most vulnerable be rescued. The Game Changers shares the moving story of how local leaders are penetrating their culture and working to transform families, institutions and society, and offers readers suggestions for practical ways that they, too, can make a difference.

Damn Him to Hell

Saturn’s Daughters Book 2

By: Patricia Rice,Jamie Quaid

In which Tina learns she can be a Fury meting out justice, or a lawyer, not both Tina Clancy’s post-bar-exam celebration erupts in a melee after poisonous pink particles leave her neighbors inexplicably pummeling each other, then keeling over, comatose. Her home in Baltimore’s already-weird Zone has been contaminated once by Acme Chemical. Now the company is at it again, ferrying the unconscious bodies of friends to a notorious experimental lab instead of to the hospital. After being accidentally damned to hell, Tina’s ex-boyfriend Max is back—but not for long if his demon grandmother has her way. If that’s not frightening enough, Tina has to prevent her dangerously immoral boss Andre from turning her new home into a battleground in his war with Acme—or from turning his guns on Max. As a daughter of Saturn, Tina has the power to dispense justice, but her gift often comes with disastrous consequences. Only this time, Tina is on her own. There’s a very real chance that saving her friends will happen over her dead body. Saturn’s Daughters series in order: Boyfriend From Hell Damn Him to Hell Giving Him Hell

Giving Him Hell

Saturn’s Daughters Book 3

By: Patricia Rice,Jamie Quaid

In which Justine learns the meaning of “blue Christmas” has nothing to do with melancholy As a justice-meting daughter of Saturn and newly-minted lawyer, Tina Clancy is looking forward to a peaceful holiday in the Zone, her chemically-enhanced neighborhood in Baltimore's industrial area. She knows to expect a healthy dose of crazy. Sparkling holiday lights that spontaneously combust—check. Garden gnomes swimming in sauna-like snow melt—check. But when a blue blob crawls out of the red-hot sewer—that's a bridge too far. Tina is suddenly immersed in exorcising a malevolent ghost, stopping the chemical plant from bulldozing her neighbors, and banishing endangered tourists from her increasingly peculiar home. At the same time, she's trying to figure out whether her drop-dead sexy client, Andre Legrande, is a gift-wrapped present or a stocking full of coal. Oh— and Tina just may have accidentally opened a gateway to Hell. Saturn’s Daughters series in order: Boyfriend From Hell Damn Him to Hell Giving Him Hell

My Two Mothers: A Memoir with Recipes

By: Patricia Florio

My five-year granddaughter Amelia insists my entire family join in a huddle in the living room before leaving our home after a birthday party, a holiday meal, or just in-the-middle-of-a-week-night at Mimi and PopPop's house. She encourages us to come out of this huddle shouting, "Yay, family!" Even at her young age, Amelia has gotten the notion that being part of a family is something special to celebrate. If I've set this tradition in motion and influenced her, or my other grandchildren's desire to part of my family, I can rest knowing that I've done my job. My own love of family, cultivated long before I was born, by my grandmother, my mother, her sisters and brothers in the house at 435 Union Street in the Carroll Gardens section of Brooklyn, this is where I grew to appreciate having a loving family. It was that house, that family, those home-cooked meals that motivated me to present to you this book, My Two Mothers: A Memoir With Recipes. " The small 'village' she was born into and grew up is mostly gone. Patricia has shared her experience with us and we are richer for it." Rashidah Ismaili AbuBakr, Author of Cantata for Jimmy

Cucina Amelia

By: Patricia Florio

Cucina Amelia shares a combination of stories and cooking that's been passed down between a family with two Italian grandmothers: One Sicilian and one Neapolitan, whose recipes and traditions nourished a family's love of good food, while bringing home-cooked meals along with memories and recipes for generations to come. Patricia says, "It didn’t matter that the recipes were brought over from Avellino, Naples or Palermo, Sicily; these cities crossed boundaries in my mother’s kitchen for the most delicious of everything.”
