Hope in the Valley
Shares the Author’s Personal Journey of Grief and Gives Hope to Others
​
This booklet is highly recommended for anyone who is nursing a terminally ill person or has recently lost a loved one.
It does not pretend that grief is easy but it attempts to help the bereaved person through the agony of parting in a practical and helpful way.
It can be read straight through or it can be dipped in to, and indeed returned to again and again for reference.
One widow read it three times during the first week after her husband’s death and said it helped her greatly. It even has a few touches of humour which in no way lessen the pain of grief.
The Four Graces
This book is a beautiful collection of poems, quotes, and Bible passages selected by Penelope Bourdillon, accompanied by Marcia Gibson-Watt’s illustrations of Radnorshire churches.
Radnorshire, known for its wild beauty and simple yet inspiring churches, has long influenced artists and writers. Marcia captured 63 of these churches in miniature paintings for the book’s original edition, created during the millennium year when her husband was president of the Royal Welsh Show.
Each illustration is paired with a thoughtful text, reflecting the deep joy both Penelope and Marcia felt while creating this special collection.
How God Can Peel an Onion
Do you have a vision? As we are reaching the end of the millennium, there is undoubtedly a search for something that is missing in peoples lives.
There are strange things going on in the world that point to a new awakening; personally, I feel that this is a spiritual awakening. When Diana, Princess of Wales, was killed, we saw a hitherto unknown wave of public behaviour.
This was called mass hysteria, and so it became because the press whipped it up. I am convinced this was because most people were searching for something but they knew not what they want.
Surely, what many people are thirsting for is spiritual fulfilment. For those who have not yet found it, I urge you to read this little book, with an open heart.
