When Grandma Looked at the Moon

A Memoir of Generations, Faith, and Life

About this book

A personal and poignant account of Mary Katherine Hom-Smith's relationship with her grandmother during the end stages of life, When Grandma Looked at the Moon traces through its narrative the process of grief and healing for a close-knit family of faith and the friends who came alongside them. Woven throughout this season are the travels and unusual circumstances of the author, who found herself on her own internal journey of exploring aspects of Christian practice--particularly in the area of healing--and the crystallization of her own values through the challenges and opportunities of life. As the moon, sun, and stars appear frequently, inspiring their viewers and reminding the family of both their Creator and each other, Hom-Smith's grasp of how God may surprise and grace even difficult times grows as well.
