The apple tree invites us to see the world with childlike eyes of wonder, wisdom, and hope for the future.

Their care had come in the forms of meals when things were hard, taking walks when I was isolated, praying with me, and simply being present but not scared of the hard stuff.

THE STORYTELLER
It is the same with our stories of faith. When God has acted in a family and helped someone, those stories strengthen the family’s faith.
