Can you let me see what you've ordered when you're done with them, Mr. Lauffer? I had forgotten about those pamphlets. Can you let me see what you’ve ordered when you’re done with them, Mr. Lauffer?

There is not much available in this area, but a lot of customer interest in Eastern Christianity in the bookshop in which i work, and I would love to be able to stock them.

Many of these titles seem very helpful. I will be ordering some in the near future. For example: #3, 5, 10, 14,15,16,17, etc. seem very useful for evangelization purposes. CDL RDC,

Even a jaded dyed-in-the-wool Rusnak like me still finds interesting things that I'd forgotten about when I look through them.
