Jesse is the last of the angel dolls I made to remember and honour our dead, all our dead, known and unknown, familiar or strangers. "Our guardian angels are closer to us than anything except the love of God." Eileen Elias Freeman  JESSE

Rachel is one of a series of angels reminding us of the gift of life given to us by those who have died suddenly. "We cannot pass our guardian angel's bounds, resigned or sullen; he will hear our sighs." Saint Augustine  RACHEL Allison is one of a group of angels dedicated to the memory of those who die without saying good-bye. "The soul at its highest is found like God, but an angel gives a closer idea of him. That is all an angel is: an idea of God.” Meister Eckhart  ALLISON Victoria is one of a group of angels honouring those who have died suddenly. "I saw the tracks of angels in the earth: the beauty of heaven walking by itself on the world." Petrarch  VICTORIA Mary is one of a group of angels, guides, to help us make sense of our violent world. "Be a light unto the world, and hurt it not. Seek to build not destroy. Bring My people home. How? By your shining example. Seek only Godliness. Speak only in truthfulness. Act only in love. Live the Law of Love now and forever more. Give everything require nothing. Avoid the mundane. Do not accept the unacceptable. Teach all who seek to learn of Me. Make every moment of your life an outpouring of love. Use every moment to think the highest thought, say the highest word, do the highest deed. In this, glorify your Holy Self, and thus too, glorify Me. Bring peace to the Earth by bringing peace to all those whose lives you touch. Be peace. Feel and express in every moment your Divine Connection with the All, and with every person, place, and thing. Embrace every circumstance, own every fault, share every joy, contemplate every mystery, walk in every man’s shoes, forgive every offense (including your own), heal every heart, honour every person’s truth, adore every person’s God, protect every person’s rights, preserve every person’s dignity, promote every person’s interests, provide every person’s needs, presume every person’s holiness, present every person’s greatest gifts, produce every person’s blessing, pronounce every person’s future secure in the assured love of God. Be a living, breathing example of the Highest Truth that resides within you. Speak humbly of yourself, lest someone mistake your Highest Truth for boast. Speak softly, lest someone think you are merely calling for attention. Speak gently, that all might know of Love. Speak openly, lest someone think you have something to hide. Speak candidly, so you cannot be mistaken. Speak often, so that your word may truly go forth. Speak respectfully, that no one be dishonoured. Speak lovingly, that every syllable may heal. Speak of Me with every utterance. Make of your life a gift. Remember always, you are the gift! Be a gift to everyone who enters your life, and to everyone whose life you enter. Be careful not to enter another’s life if you cannot be a gift. (You can always be a gift, because you always are the gift-- yet sometimes you don’t let yourself know that.) When someone enters your life unexpectedly, look for the gift that person has come to receive from you… I HAVE SENT YOU NOTHING BUT ANGELS.” Neale Donald Walsch, Conversations With God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Vol.  MARY Lauren is one of a group of angels ministering to us, mediating love, as we grieve for those who have died violently. "The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone." George Elliot  LAUREN Caroline is one of a series of angels commemorating those children who have been killed. "Ever felt an angel's breath in the gentle breeze? A teardrop in the falling rain? Hear a whisper amongst the rustle of leaves? Or been kissed by a lone snowflake? Nature is an angel's favourite hiding place." Carrie Latet  CAROLINE Emilie is one of a series of angels honouring those killed in massacres. "If instead of a gem, or even a flower, we should cast the gift of a loving thought into the heart of a friend, that would be giving as the angels give." George MacDonald  EMILIE Jessica is one of a series of dolls honouring the dead. We often refer to children who have died as 'Our Little Angel'. "These things I warmly wish for you: Someone to love, some work to do, A bit o' sun, a bit o' cheer, And a guardian angel always near." Irish Blessing  JESSICA Arielle is one of a series of angels remembering those, especially children, who die violently. "The soul at his highest is found like God, but an angel gives a closer idea of Him. That is all an angel is: an idea of God." Meister Eckhart  ARIELLE |
