Daughters of the King

A reflection from Sari Hedinger:

I joined Daughters of the King in 2012. At that time there were two teams of us that alternated Tuesdays and went out and visited folks who were confined in local resident facilities. When COVID hit, it was hard not to see our friends. I would call and ask a nurse to take a phone to residents so I could talk with them. It’s so nice now to visit once again and give them hugs. Nancy Walker and Coralie Boatman still do visits, and Nancy leaves me Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter cards to deliver to our friends. I was especially inspired by a homily given by Pope Francis on 7/8/20: “In our effort to seek the Lord’s face, we can recognize him in the face of the poor, the sick, the abandoned and the foreigners whom God places on our way. This encounter becomes a time of grace and salvation and summons us to the same mission entrusted to the Apostles.”
