Book excerpt: A raw and powerful memoir of Jaycee Lee Dugard's own story of being kidnapped as an 11-year-old and held captive for over 18 years On 10 June 1991, eleven-year-old Jaycee Dugard was abducted from a school bus stop within sight of her home in Tahoe, California. It was the last her family and friends saw of her for over eighteen years. On 26 August 2009, Dugard, her daughters, and Phillip Craig Garrido appeared in the office of her kidnapper's parole officer in California. Their unusual behaviour sparked an investigation that led to the positive identification of Jaycee Lee Dugard, living in a tent behind Garrido's home. During her time in captivity, at the age of fourteen and seventeen, she gave birth to two daughters, both fathered by Garrido. Dugard's memoir is written by the 30-year-old herself and covers the period from the time of her abduction in 1991 up until the present. In her stark, utterly honest and unflinching narrative, Jaycee opens up about what she experienced, including how she feels now, a year after being found. Garrido and his wife Nancy have since pleaded guilty to their crimes.

Download or read book All s Well That Ends Well written by Peter Graystone and published by Canterbury Press. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few writers have a deeper understanding of the foibles of human nature and life’s absurdities and tragedies than William Shakespeare. This makes him a fascinating companion for the season of Lent, a traditional time for a spot of self-examination. This engaging, wise and often amusing Lent book sets quotations from Shakespeare’s characters and poems alongside biblical passages and reflects on the resonance between them – one reflection for each day of the season. It starts with dust on Ash Wednesday (‘Golden lads and girls all must, As chimney-sweepers, come to dust’, from Cymbeline) and ends with resurrection as Easter Sunday approaches (‘It is required you do awake your faith’, from The Winter’s Tale). In between, it considers many rich spiritual themes: mercy, love, loyalty, trust, good vs evil, guilt, forgiveness, ageing, grief, death, hope and more. Each day’s reflection opens with a quotation from Shakespeare and explores its ideas in conversation with the Bible and Christian thought.

Download or read book Jesus Is Alive Happy Easter Ats Pack of 25 written by Good News Tracts and published by Good News Publishers. This book was released on 2016-01-31 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Easter is a happy time of year with chocolate bunnies, colored eggs, and jelly beans. It's when winter changes into spring with flowers blooming and the grass turning green. We can be very happy at Easter time. Do you know why? A long time ago, Jesus Christ died on a cross and was buried in a small cave. His friends closed the cave with a big stone and went away very sad. But they were in for a big surprise. Three days later, on the first Easter, Jesus's friends found the cave empty with the stone rolled away. They were afraid until an angel told them Jesus was not dead anymore. He was alive And that's why we can be so happy on Easter-- because Jesus Christ died and is now alive Jesus dying on the cross means we are forgiven of the bad things we do (sin). Jesus Christ was raised from the dead so that we can live with him forever in heaven. The Bible tells us, "Yes, God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son Jesus], so that everyone who believes in him would not be lost but have eternal life" (John 3:16). If you believe what Jesus did for you, then pray a prayer like this: Jesus, I'm sorry I do bad things. Please forgive me. I believe you died for me to take away my sins. I believe you came back to life so I can live with you forever in heaven. I now trust in you as my Savior. Amen Yes, I now trust in Jesus Christ as my Savior Send your decision to the Truth Chasers Club, a ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship, and they will send you free information to help you grow in your new relationship with God.

Download or read book Soul Pain written by Jennifer Tann and published by Hymns Ancient and Modern Ltd. This book was released on 2013 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Priests in their pastoral ministry encounter heart-breaking incidents occurring before what is regarded as a normal life-span: a child with cancer, a road accident, a seriously ill young mother, a bright student struck down. While this may be some preparation, when priests and ministers personally experience serious or terminal illness, they have the additional burden of being in a public role; of needing to manage outward behaviours and inner feelings. They live out the difficult questions which others bring to them, and to which there are no easy answers. Soul Pain (a term coined by Dame Cicely Saunders) is a moving, articulate and profound series of reflections on the shock, fear, anger, desolation, acceptance that serious illness brings, the choices to be faced and the meaning of healing in such contexts. Theologically rich and with a depth of wisdom learned at great cost, this book is full of illuminating insights for all who minister to those with life-threatening conditions and those who watch and wait. Essential reading for all in pastoral ministry.
