What others have said about the series
‘With its carefully chosen mix of familiar words and evocative music, this imaginative and practical resource is nothing less than a Godsend.’
Pam Rhodes, Presenter of BBC’s ‘Songs of Praise', Patron of MHA
‘Any Christian who has sat alongside a person with dementia – especially someone deeply loved – will know … the anguish of wondering how to share the Good News, to speak out of a faith that is both confident and sensitive. This collection of resources will be a great gift in such circumstances and I am very grateful to those who have prepared it.’
