(In-Person) Where Words Meet Grace: A Workshop for Life’s Most Meaningful Chapters
May 13, 2026 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
The Correspondent by Virginia Evans is a gentle, reflective book that invites readers to explore the meaning of connection, memory, and the stories we leave behind. In this 4-part workshop series we will invite reflection on some of the
letters in the book and work to identify our own “correspondents,” creating messages, journals, or recordings that capture our hopes, wisdom, and love. This book becomes a springboard for meaningful legacy work, providing language and
creative prompts that help Wellness House members express what matters most and live each day to the fullest. Members do not need to attend all four workshops to receive benefit from one offering.Facilitated by Carey M. Palmquist, MSM & Advanced Illness Doula
