Gift - Lila Ellexson Senter - Bog

In The Gift, Lila Ellexson Senter reflects on Christmases past and takes us along for the journey. Throughout time, she and her friends and family have discovered the joy of "word gifts" -collections of quotations, original poetry, and stories that have amplified the meaning of Christmas for both the gift giver and recipient. This book represents some of the most meaningful word gifts they have exchanged over the years. The words, so carefully chosen, reflect a strong faith, and the beautiful artwork that accompanies each word gift amplifies the message. Reading The Gift is truly a gift to yourself. Throughout the year, pick up this book and let it remind you of the importance of love, family, and faith. And during the holidays, consider wrapping it up for a friend, along with a word gift of your own, so they, too, can reconnect with the true meaning of Christmas. Lila Ellexson Senter is a retired social worker living in Abilene, Texas. She and her husband Bill, with whom she raised three children, enjoy traveling, reading, and volunteering in their community. The Gift was written as a way to promote and support the work of Abilene Hope Haven, a local shelter in the Senters' hometown.
