Breath

Breath is a collection of reflections for those who care for the dying. It contains weekly meditations for caregivers.

“These beautiful, warm, and sensitively written reflections are a true gift for individuals caring for the dying.They offer comfort and solace as we journey with those at the edge of life.”

“In the vignettes that fill the pages of his book, Chaplain Matt Holmes attends to the mysterious interweaving of death and life by deeply reflecting on his ministry with the dying. With poetic observation, personal vulnerability, narrative skill, and at times poignant humor, Chaplain Holmes reminds us to pay attention: to pay attention to everything.”
