Angels Land at Wind River thanks to artist Anne Neilson

We are so excited to have received a generous donation of Angel Journals from artist Anne Neilson!  We have enough angels journals to share with all of our participants this year!

Shannon and Dave had a short but impactful introduction to Anne and her husband last year.   And her beautiful, healing angels have continued to call to Shannon every since.  So when it was time to seek out journals to share with our survivors this year, Anne's images immediately came to mind.
There are 5 different covers and each has a beautiful passage inside from Psalm 91 "May angels surround you always."

Thank you again for your gift, and the healing art you give to the world!



More about Anne.  Anne Herring Neilson began her artistic career with a successful pottery business, Herring Designs, Inc. (1989 to 1997). After a brief interlude spent focused on her growing family, she rekindled her lifelong passion for art in 2003 when she began painting in oils. Neilson quickly became nationally known for her ethereal Angel Series paintings which are inspiring reflections of her faith and flair for color and light. In addition to her popular Angel paintings, Neilson’s repertoire includes dramatic landscapes featuring scenes from her travels.

NO EVIDENCE OF DISEASE!!!

ALUMNI CORNER
Robyn Clark Stevens
2015 Wind River Alum

This week we are thrilled to share that one of our 2015 Retreat alumni, a stage IV cancer survivor had her most recent scans report N.E.D. which stands for  NO EVIDENCE of DISEASE!!!

Our announcement could easily stop there, but it was profound to read in the same post by Robyn the following important message to all survivors who have anxiety around the uncertainty of cancer ...

 "Cancer has a way of keeping you walking a very, very tight rope. You don't go too positive because you don't want to be let down. And yet you can't go too negative because that's REALLY not good. So you walk this line, yet always wondering when you're going to trip and fall.  I can't say those thoughts will ever go away but you manage it. You just manage it.
I don't know what the future holds. I don't know if this will change in another year... I want to hope not but again, I'm not in control. Any way this goes, I'm here now and for that I'm forever grateful and lucky.   Be. Here. Now
