About This Book

'Marie Sheppard Williams is delightfully politically incorrect. She takes us inside sheltered workshops, hospitals, funeral parlors, assorted agencies staffed by social workers, and to a United Way picnic attended by dwarfs. Her characters are unique and unforgettable. This is a disarming, disturbing book."
-Maxine Kumin, author of "Women, Animals, & Vegetables," winner of the Pulitzer Prize. '"Worldwide Church" is an absolute joy. I have been reading it all day.and made a fool of myself at Starbucks because I was laughing so hard that tears ran down my face, and then I started to cry.."
-Anne Lamott, author of "Bird by Bird," and "Traveling Mercies" 'It's a wonderful book .."
-Bill Holm, Minnesota Author of "The Heart Can Be Filled Anywhere on Earth"; and Minnesota Book Award Winner
