Description
From the Foot of the Cross is written for those who sit beside hospital beds, visit the sick, or are home caregivers, perhaps attending to the needs of someone who is terminally ill. We know our powerlessness, but nevertheless try to respond as best we can, waiting, watching, caring, being there; just like Mary. Each of the twelve short chapters contains passages from Scripture and prayers which represent the struggle to pray through and find God within the watching and waiting hours.
