This is a moving and personal story of teachers life told from her side of the desk. Teachers build a nation by touching the lives of the youth and you will be there, too, as the stories touch your life. Everyone knows what it is like to be a student; they don't know how it is to be the teacher! The author began teaching in 1960 before the civil rights movement was in full swing. Through the eyes of the children and the teacher you will watch education change in the forty years that followed. When you read Touching Lives you will share wonderful and surprising experiences with students of various ages whose lives have touched my own. As you read, you will cry for them, worry for them, and always you will love them as I did. Laugh with me when Henry brings his snakes to school. Enjoy the adventure to the aquarium; and the trip to the woods through the eyes of the children who have never been out of the city. Any person involved in education, at any level, will enjoy this story. Shirley A. Kitner-Mainello
"Whether as a leader seeking to empower others or as an individual struggling to become a better person ourselves, the decision to empower is a choice we make. The nature of our action is to acknowledge the incredible ability that exists within another person or to realize that we also possess an undiscovered and unrealized greatness. The untapped capacity within each individual is rarely imagined and it is extremely unusual for a person to realize even a small part of his or her almost unlimited capabilities. The focus of this book is on coming to terms with the best version of ourselves and to then accept the responsibility to help others to discover their own highest potential. The quest for self-discovery and a clearer sense of our own identity is often delayed in the hustle-bustle of a busy life-until we finally realize that we have chosen to "satisfice" or live our lives far below what we are capable of achieving. The journey to greater self-awareness and to an appreciation of our hidden talents is a necessary step to discovering the life that we never imagined is actually possible. Realizing who we can become enables us to not only redefine our identities but also teaches us of our moral obligation to help others to recognize what their lives can mean. In raising the bar for our own performance or in helping others to become their very best, empowerment is ultimately a choice-a decision to redefine our best definition of ourselves and to assist others to discover their immense potential as well"--
Touching Lives is not merely a chronicle of the community outreach of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It is the story of journeys to far corners of India meeting people whose lives have been transformed by technology. It is the account of people who have forged a different destiny for themselves, breaking the cycle of poverty and helplessness, with a little help from ISRO. Throwing light on some of the million tiny revolutions sweeping the country, the book takes us from Jhabua to interior Karnataka, from the Sundarbans to Chamoli in Garhwal. It is our chance to meet everyday

REACHING PEOPLE AND TOUCHING LIVES AROUND THE WORLD A WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY FOR GLOBAL OUTREACH The God we serve is a global God. He has called all believers to "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation" (Mark 16:15 NASB). During these times of worldwide turmoil, Christians who have a desire to serve as global witnesses for Christ can boldly step forward, knowing that God's mandate to all believers is growing closer to fulfillment. God has given His Church everything needed to do as He commanded. Now is the time to go, because there is a window of opportunity. This book will provide enlightenment in the areas where change must take place so that the body of Christ can make a united global effort to take on the challenges of this world. Visit our website: www.hocmm.org. Dr. Tracy and Linda V. Sharpe have a combined total of over thirty years in ministry. Tracy received a doctor of ministry degree from Friends International University and a master of arts degree in organizational management from the University of Phoenix. After serving twenty years in the United States Army and attaining the rank of major, Tracy, along with his wife, Linda, founded Heart of Compassion Missionary Ministries. Prior to their marriage, Linda was involved in cross-cultural ministry in Zimbabwe for over eighteen months under the direction of Bishop Tudor Bismark. This selfless devotion to missions inspired Dr. Sharpe to go with her into the world to preach the gospel. Their love for ministering to the lost and helping orphaned children has inspired them in a joint effort with Pastors Ivy and Martin Bernard of Christ-Like Ministries to construct Heart of Compassion Children's Home. Dr. Tracy and Linda Sharpe are dedicated to reaching people and touching lives around the world.
When I got there, I found the girl lying on the floor, naked and screaming, with the baby’s foot sticking out. Judy Gabriel gives humble, authentic voice to the personal experiences and practices of scores of traditional midwives in rural Mexico. The midwives talk about their childhoods, marriages, losses, rituals, and techniques. The rich narratives describe childbirth before modern medicine redefined it. Intended to engage, enrich, and inspire, Gabriel’s work tells of the women who received generations of babies into their hands when knowledge about childbirth came from women’s bodies, from instinct, from dreams, and from other women. The stories unfold in the context of high-intervention obstetrics and soaring Cesarean rates, a world that often degrades women and violates the sanctity of birth. An ideal supplemental text for courses in cultures of Mesoamerica; the anthropology of reproduction, midwifery, and birth; medical or biological anthropology; and midwifery practice in historical and cross-cultural context.
