DESCRIPTION:A Book Launch celebrating Keeping Faith in Fundraising\nFeaturing Author Rod Wilson\nCo-Hosted by Regent College & A Rocha Canada\nYou are invited to Rod Wilson’s book launch for Keeping Faith in Fundraising.

I am excited to see the radical change that will happen when this practical guide is put in the hands of church\, parachurch\, and non-profit organizations. \nPaul Lorimer\n(The Christian and Missionary Alliance in Canada) \n\nBuy the Book\nKeeping Faith in Fundraising will be available at the event. \nTo order a copy from Canada\, contact the Regent College Bookstore (604-228-1820) or order online through Amazon.ca. \nTo order a copy from the USA visit Eerdmans.com. \nSpread the Word\nDownload & share the poster \nShare on Facebook
