Public Libraries and houses of worship should consider purchasing, especially if there is a Compassionate Friends group in the community. Recommended. |
| Video Librarian |
| This series is designed primarily for those who are experiencing first-hand the loss or anticipated loss of a loved one, but the programs would be equally valuable for other caregivers, Stephen Ministers, pastors, and other professionals. I recommend its inclusion in a church library for people who might be hesitant to ask for help, but might be willing to view the videos in the privacy of their homes. |
| Lutheran Partners |
| I would definitely recommend purchasing these for your library. The interviews convey information that will provide helpful both for those looking to find direction for healing from a loss and for those called upon to support the bereaved. |
