- "When the last leaves of summer were clinging to trees in autumn, a small group spent three days together to develop this resource: Phyllis Keeper, Gladys Cook and Mina Stevenson along with Laverne Jacobs, National Coordinator for Native Ministries [Anglican Church of Canada]. They were assisted by Pat Lee, Executive Archdeacon for the Diocese of Rupert's Land, Stan McKay Sr., a United Church partner, and Annette Loutit, our artist. .... The stories here relate to brokenness, loss and healing. Some stories relate to residential schools experience because that was formative in the lives of many participants .... Residential school experience touches young and old. It might be especially important for children and youth to hear these stories to help them better understand the brokenness in their own families and communities, and the theme is especially relevant to our spiritual journey in the Lent/Easter season, moving from brokenness to wholeness". -- Editorial.
