Why We Need Our Family Story Now More Than Ever
Grandchildren and great-grandchildren share how they are continually blessed and benefited by their Grandma Jan’s family narratives. Watch how this beloved matriarch weaves the family story into the tapestry of everyday life.
“Connecting with our ancestors can change our lives in surprising ways. From their trials and accomplishments, we gain faith and strength. From their love and sacrifices, we learn to forgive and move forward. Our children become resilient. We gain protection and power. Ties with ancestors increase family closeness, gratitude, miracles. Such ties can bring help from the other side of the veil.” Gerrit W. Gong We Each Have a Story
“If you want a happier family, create, refine and retell the story of your family’s positive moments and your ability to bounce back from the difficult ones. That act alone may increase the odds that your family will thrive for many generations to come.” Bruce Feiler The Family Stories That Bind Us
