Who knew the Utne site had blogs? They do, including one on spirituality, and we made it with a story I put in our Winter 2007 “Reflections” section: Suicide, Faith, and Compassion
Kate Braestrup encountered this sad reality in her work as a chaplain for game wardens, an experience she recounts in an excerpt from her memoir, Here If You Need Me, published in the UU World, a publication of the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations.
I’m here by way of Velveteen Rabbi. Thanks so much for this post and links. I had looked at that book in a bookstore in the last few weeks and hoped to be able to buy it sometime. What I read made a deep impression on me.
Thanks also for posting “People in Order.” I put it up on my blog, too.
