Seller's Description:
Good. GOOD BOOK! NO SPINE CREASES & MILD WEAR ON COVER. LIGHTLY AGED PAGES, NAME ON ENDPAGE & UNDERLINING IN TEXT. Description: Here is a book designed to help readers recognize, ritualize, reflect on and re-orient themselves in the face of loss--to help heal the hurts caused by goodbyes and the anxieties encountered by change, whether caused by death, loss of a job, crisis, or whatever.
The older edition of Praying Our Goodbyes has been on my bookshelf for years. I find it a ready resource for prayer days or for special occasions when I needed a starter to plan a prayer service. Rupp reminds us that life has many occasions when "letting go" is difficult. Her rituals for saying good-bye help to bring closure and to heal some of the pain of the loss.
