Glimpses

Glimpses is a deeply personal memoir of a very long and impactful life that began during the Great Depression of the 1920s, continued through the Second World War, and evolved into a lifetime of service, from the author's volunteer work with early feminist organizations in Canada, which helped push through new governmental programs and protections for women, to advocating for equal-rights regulations and invaluable programs designed to help victims of spousal and domestic abuse. Working with the church and various service organizations, the author also embarked on a number of children's aid missions in the Global South, with a focus on offering a helping hand-rather than a "hand out"-to impoverished or embattled communities around the world. With first-hand experience and a lifetime's worth of insight into a life truly spent in service, Glimpses is the perfect read for anyone concerned about advancing and achieving equality of rights and opportunity, interested in twentieth century history, or simply wanting to gain a better understanding of their relationship with faith and spirituality.
