Book Description
People in the later years of life face many changes, many that are not of their own choosing. Still Praying After All These Years offers 52 reassuring meditations that encourage readers to realize that their lives still have meaning and that aging holds opportunities for spiritual growth. Each meditation begins with a concern, question, or insight expressed in the author's conversations with people ages 75-100. In the Perspectives section, the author provides psychological and theological insights, welcoming doubt, mystery, and the many emotions that accompany aging. Next, she invites readers to practice their faith by reflecting on some aspect of their life or undertaking an action. A brief prayer ends each meditation, opening readers to a deeper relationship with God. This book will help older readers feel heartened and less alone as they hear about others who have walked a similar path. Readers who are caregivers will be moved to empathize with the spiritual, emotional, and other challenges their loved one faces. For readers who minister with the elderly, this resource will increase their capacity to extend empathy and compassion to individuals and groups of frail elderly people. As they ponder these meditations, readers of any age will be encouraged to savor the life God has given them in a fresh, new way.

Book Description
I Am Catholic: The Paths We All Take presents short stories that depict the daily struggles of Catholics making their journeys through disappointment, doubt, and fear. They discover anew the strength God gives through faith and the resolve he stirs up in them to know, serve, and love him. Hilary De Freitas has crafted stories reflecting the riches of Catholic piety and worship, revealing the internal struggles Catholics face in practicing their faith, and drawing the reader into finding common ground with the stories characters. This collections twelve stories enter into the rhythms of life that arise from Catholic worship and prayer and view those defining moments as windows that reveal the riches of the faith and their response to lifes challenges. In Prayer, for instance, Jessica observes, Like most other people I know who pray the Rosary, I started off because I had petitions to make. I was praying for the souls of the faithful departed in my family, as that year we seemed to be losing a lot of family members. The loss was hitting our family very hard. Many times I wasnt praying for those who had passed but for those who remained. If your life presents you with roadblocks to cultivating a deeper faith, then the stories in I Am Catholic: The Paths We All Take will offer you the encouragement that comes from following someone who has walked a path through the dark times and come to a deeper and renewed practice of the faith.

Book Description
The fear of being set free kept me in my cage. Your fear can set you free, but only if you free them first. After that, fear has no power. When we question what we feel and think, we allow the transparency of those thoughts and emotions to find their way to the surface. We can uncover fears layer by layer to see what lies beyond. Fear is very often irrational and driven by a deeper source, maybe even an old wound. If so, this book was written specifically for you to help you realize that you have greatness on the inside of you. This is a book that will give you peace and can help you find your purpose as you begin to go through a healing process of things that you feared from your past that you allowed to hold you back. It will allow you to see yourself the way God sees you. This book will let you see that God did not abandon you and that he was carrying you through the storm the whole time to allow you to see that the storm doesn't always last. Weeping may endure overnight, but joy cometh in the morning. So today is a new beginning for the rest of your life. Let fear go and tell yourself that no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Thank you, Jesus, for setting me free. Now I can fly.
