Böcker av Jennifer Clarke

This book is a personal and faith journey - a book of reflective, inspirational prayers written every day for a year. Back in early May 2020 I had a vision for this project slip its way into my mind. The vision was a request to write prayers to Mother Mary. I was asked to do this every day for twelve months. Why this project? I was baffled! It was no simple task. I just sat there wondering how in Mary's name I was going to write 365 prayers that didn't end up being similar.I found that from the very beginning it became a reflective personal observational exercise for me and the prayers have become more of a reflection with a prayer attached. My prayer today is to you - that you find joy and strength in your heart as you walk the path of wherever these words take you.

For two years Jennifer Clarke transcribed her conversations with lifelong friend and mentor Mary as her dementia progressed.Meeting when Mary was Jennifer's teacher at high school, the friendship came full circle after they agreed to write a book about Mary's illness and Jennifer found herself asking the questions.Through the laughs and tears, this unfiltered account gives insight into the struggles Mary faced and the comfort her faith provided.

A collection of beautiful photographs and thoughtful sayings to contemplate and inspire. Captured around the Macleay on Australia's east coast, a river that stretches from the rugged Great Dividing Range to the Pacific Ocean, the photographs take you through shaded mountain pools and open cattle country to the bird-filled floodplains and crashing surf beyond. Be reminded that beside the majestic sunsets and dramatic vistas there may be a leaf catching the light just-so, or a smile on a face nearby. Each photograph is paired with a reflection inspired by these surroundings - some profound, some whimsical - and all thought-provoking. Take some time to sit and reflect - see where the journey takes you!
