Jane Knuth provides a touching look behind the scenes of a St. Vincent de Paul thrift store. The stories are touching and meaningful as she grows from reluctant volunteer to dedicated staffperson/caregiver. She learns to see her clients and customers as complex caring people who have something to teach her about life and religion. You might learn something yourself.
