The Spiritual Journey of Family Caregiving
Author: Sheryl KarasPublisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0615186033
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
For five years, ending in 2005, Sheryl Karas worked as a Family Caregiving Consultant at the Alzheimer's Association and Del Mar Caregiver Resource Center helping families taking care of loved ones with incurable progressive memory loss and dementia. Trying to find services needed to provide basic care is what brought people in to see her first, but as the caregivers became more ensconced in their caregiving roles inevitably emotional and spiritual issues would become their primary concerns. Sheryl's role shifted to providing a combination of practical and spiritual care. During this period she wrote a caregiver newsletter every month and this book is the result.The author uses a very open, nondogmatic spiritual frame, appropriate for people of all religious backgrounds or none at all. Inspirational, comforting, and informative--highly recommended for anyone involved with long term care.
The Shortest Day
Author: Susan CooperPublisher: Candlewick
ISBN: 0763686980
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 33
Book Description
In this seasonal treasure, Newbery Medalist Susan Cooper’s beloved poem heralds the winter solstice, illuminated by Caldecott Honoree Carson Ellis’s strikingly resonant illustrations. So the shortest day came, and the year died . . . As the sun set on the shortest day of the year, early people would gather to prepare for the long night ahead. They built fires and lit candles. They played music, bringing their own light to the darkness, while wondering if the sun would ever rise again. Written for a theatrical production that has become a ritual in itself, Susan Cooper’s poem "The Shortest Day" captures the magic behind the returning of the light, the yearning for traditions that connect us with generations that have gone before — and the hope for peace that we carry into the future. Richly illustrated by Carson Ellis with a universality that spans the centuries, this beautiful book evokes the joy and community found in the ongoing mystery of life when we celebrate light, thankfulness, and festivity at a time of rebirth. Welcome Yule!

It assists us to recover an experience that had deep meaning for the ancients and that is now increasingly relevant to a world facing environmental challenges.

Pages : 366
Book Description
Throw away the template for Christmas books and come walk on the kingdom side in an examination of America's most loved holiday. Critical thinking is a must while looking through this lens of history and Scripture. You will be intrigued and enlightened. What's wrong with Christmas? Plenty. This book shines light on various troubling issues involved in celebrating a Christian Christmas. How to clean it up? This will be determined by you and your family. Since we have an abundance of traditions, memories, and reasons to stay just the way we are, Santa-tizing will primarily explore the opposite. Know that in God's kingdom no person is forced to do anything against their will. From the depths of her heart, Robin Main declared, "Here I am, Lord. Do what You will" and thus began a prophetic journey into the intensity of God's heart. Robin has been sequestered with the Lord for the past ten years. Like an archeologist, she has been led to sift through the sands of time to discover various mysteries in relation to some divine messages she received during three epiphanous appearances. Robin's life ambition is to love the Lord with all her heart, all her soul and all her strength; and her neighbor as herself. Check out www.santa-tizing.com for more information.
