Book Launch September 17th 2013 Parliament House Sydney Australia.
Dear
friends, since last newsletter I have also had a wonderful experience of having
my book Redeeming Grief, Abortion and its
Pain, (Sec. Ed) launched in the New South Wales Parliament House. It was
launched by the Hon. Mr Paul Green member of the Legislative Council, and all
this organised by his very beautiful personal assistant Yvette Hanna.
Mr Green
had very obviously read the book, that is, not just the back cover as sometimes
happens, because he seemed to know all the topics covered. His words of commendation and encouragement
nearly made my heart burst with pride that we have such good members who
represent us.
Thank
you Paul I very much appreciated everything you said and a huge thank you to
Yvette who amongst all the work of a personal assistant also organised this
beautifully.
I would
also like to say a big thank you to the Rev Fred Nile MLC for his presence and
other distinguished guests. Thank you also to Kath and Carolyn who travelled
hundreds and hundreds of kilometres from Canberra to be present. There were others there but I didn’t
recognise them except Ray. Thanks Ray Wood.
A final
big thank you to my publisher (Freedom Publishing) for assisting in all ways to
make things happen.
I hope
that this book finds its way into a million hands. It really is a hope filled
book which explains that abortion grief is not to be despised, hidden, denied
but accepted as a “good” kind of grief experienced because of love and loss and
a grief needed so that an aborted baby does not pass by unnoticed and the
mother has a chance to openly grieve for her loss. Not the manner of the dying
BUT the dying of her child. This is
utterly important.
