Every page is filled with reassurance that we will see our animal friends in heaven.\nThe death of a beloved animal friend can be one of the most difficult events we face, often surprising us at the depth of the grief and emotion we feel. It can be very comforting to know that the animals we love so much are safe with God, who created and loves them.\nThroughout his many years as a Franciscan friar, Jack Wintz came to know—the Bible gives us many clues—that we will be with our pets in heaven for eternity! St. Francis himself shared a close relationship with animals, preaching to the birds, releasing Brother Rabbit from a trap, or letting Sister Raven awaken him for early morning prayer. Franciscan spirituality tells us that all creatures form one family of creation, and God’s plan of salvation includes the whole created world.\nThis new, expanded edition of the original bestseller includes:\nWisdom from Friar Jack in 14 short and simple readings\nBlessings, prayers, and stories from Scripture\nSpecial presentation page to personalize the gift\nAdorable photos and short memories of beloved dogs\nSections of the book include:\nThree Prayers of Blessing\nThe Happiness Principle\nNoah, the Ark, and the Dove\nJonah and the Whale\nThe Song of St. Francis\nJesus and the World of Creation\nPraying with Creatures\nThe Soul of a Dog\nWith it reassuring message of God’s eternal love and care for all creation, I Will See You in Heaven helps us to know that we are not alone in our grief, and that our “goodbye” is not forever.\n\nCover photo: Hollie Betzler (2001-2018), Michigan’s first grief therapy dog, served faithfully at her family’s funeral home and area nursing homes for 16 years, giving a comforting paw at just the right time to just the right person.
