In this lovely and inviting book, Sr. Jeanette shares her experiences of visiting the elderly. Her advice is warm and welcoming, and she is an experienced guide. It is her fond hope that those who read it will embrace the ministry of visiting the elderly--and sometimes forgotten--members of the parish, to share stories, to pray together, and to grow spiritually together. She believes that this ministry is lifegiving, affirming for the elders, and an essential aspect of parish life.
