Culture Shock in New England, USA
June 1991 The huge moving van drove up the hill to my new condo and parked on the roadside.

God Comforts the Broken Hearted
Five years ago, the Lord took my sister, Marsha, home to heaven a few months after she retired from a full-time nursing career of over four decades.

Mary Slessor of Calabar (Nigeria) – Pioneer Missionary
Free Book Recommendation! Dear Readers, I rediscovered an old favorite missionary biography on Kindle which was free, so I downloaded it even though I have the hardback copy in my personal library.
