MONROE - At 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 25, the Monroe United Methodist Church, 2227 4th St., will be hosting columnist/humorist Jonathan Richard Cring and musician Janet Clazzy

Cring and Clazzy will present an evening of music and monologue, including readings from Cring's book "Digging for Gold (in the rule)" with original musical tunes performed by Clazzy on the oboe and WX-5 Wind Machine. Cring is the author of eleven books, including "20 Other Reasons to Kiss a Frog," "Jesonian," and "Living a Legendary Life." He is also a winner of a Billboard Music Award and recent recipient of the Best Screenplay Award at the Top Ten Films in America.

Clazzy has played oboe in orchestras for 30 years from coast to coast, including San Jose, Chicago, Shreveport and Houston. "I have this fabulous instrument called the WX-5 Wind Machine which gives me 250 sounds," she said. "When you add some of the beautiful music and inspiring melodies, it just lends itself to an occasion to enrich the heart and exalt the spirit."

A free-will offering will be taken and copies of books, CDs and DVDs of the movies will be available for purchase. For more information, call (608) 325-6700.
