The Peace Alliance sponsored Skip Schiel’s presentation of a slide show entitled “Bethlehm Besieged” December 9, 2008 at the Greene St Libary in Augusta, GA. Attendees urge people to check out Skip’s schedule to see if he’s in your area and to bring him to your city for future presentations. He plans to return to the southeastern United States in February 2009.
