A woman's path to sustained recovery

Though the process of recovery is never easy, some women seem to move through the journey with less pain than others. Why? What makes the difference? Here we will talk about how that happens for each of us. We will talk about how women heal in mutually empowering realtionships with themselves, with others and with God.

Visit

Our visit with family was lovely. A new grandbaby was baptized. We felt included and cared for. There was time for connected conversation...conversation one wouldn't have by phone and certainly not by email. Technology is fine but I need to be with people, to gesture and watch their gestures and facial expressions. And I need to hold babies and hug their parents.
A teenage grandson was with us all weekend also. When we entered the church he whispered, "I don't think I've been in a church since I was about 4 years old." During the service he did his best to follow. He read the prayers from the missal. He sang the hymns. He wanted to fit in. I was deeply touched.

Personal visits can change things-can change the intimate relationships. Family is the essence.

Who in your family would you like to have a more intimate connection with? How can you move that relationship forward?
How can you move your relationship with God forward? How can you experience his love and presence?
Blessings-Penny
