Karen Mace lives in the Tamar Valley not far from Launceston in Tasmania. Her career and studies have spanned the health and education sectors for most of her working life and include a master’s degree in nursing and counselling and qualifications in teaching and psychology.

While they were there, two of their daughters died in a tragic accident, and perhaps because of this, Karen eventually moved into counselling with a focus on grief therapy.

Book Review Jesus and the Jubilee
John S. Bergsma

I just finished this book recommended by our parish priest for those going on the Jubilee Pilgrimage next month. I highly recommend it, even if you aren’t going on a pilgrimage.

“If we have no peace, it's because we've forgotten we belong to one another.

Mother Teresa”
Karen A. Mace

“Even though conditions such as lack of sleep, insufficient food and various mental stresses may suggest that the inmates were bound to react in certain ways, in the final analysis it becomes clear that the sort of person the prisoner became was the result of an inner decision, and not the result of camp influences alone.”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

“Just because I work incredible good out of unspeakable tragedies doesn't mean I orchestrate the tragedies. Don't ever assume that my using something means I caused it or that I need it to accomplish my purposes. That will only lead you to false notions about me. Grace doesn't depend on suffering to exist, but where there is suffering you will find grace in many facets and colors.”
William P. Young, The Shack

“If we have no peace, it's because we've forgotten we belong to one another.

Mother Teresa”
