Living the truth of love
We all have the basic desire to be loved, but the question is, do we have the desire to be loving? It is easy to love those we know, but can we be loving to all?

We can walk in love and joy to the point that loving others is as natural as breathing once we know God’s love.

Hospice provides quality in last months of life
A common phrase is that there are two “sure things” in life: death and taxes. People spend their whole working lives paying taxes, but spend very little time thinking about and preparing for the eventuality that someday they will pass from this life. While many die of accidental death, and still more die with an undiagnosed illness, others learn that they have a terminal illness. For those people, there may come a point where medical treatment will no longer produce a cure and, instead, it will have a negative effect on the quality of life remaining. It is at this point in life that hospice care becomes the logical choice.
