FALL/WINTER 2023:
We are pleased to announce that our Lilias Trotter-inspired Advent devotional, Light of Life:  Advent Meditations, by Miriam Huffman Rockness, is now available for purchase in book form on Amazon!  Due to increased interest over the years, we have taken our PDF version of this book – which has been offered to view and print from our website in previous years and as a spiral-bound copy last year – and created a professionally designed book.
