JOURNEY



7" x 19"





Many others have experienced this same journey -- fading health or memories. We find joy in laughter together, and take care to savor our time with each other. There are bright spots, moments that are heartbreaking, or just rough terrain to navigate. We are bound together, lending love and support as best we can, and we glimpse profound love -- and always God’s grace.
