Description: "Two decades ago when communism fell in Romania, North American and Transylvanian churches became partners in a practical and spiritual adventure--reshaping the thinking of a generation. Gretchen Thomas brings these partnerships to life in Walking in Others' Shoes. Alongside vivid stories of cultural collision and hard-won mutual understanding, she traces the lives of inspiring individuals and explores Transylvanian Unitarian and Unitarian Universalist partnership histories"--P.
