Someone Is Missing at Dinner

This story, written for both children and adults, shares the different ways in which family members cope with the loss of their son, brother, uncle, husband, and grandson, all from a child’s playful perspective. Most importantly, it highlights the eternal hope we have through Jesus’s death and resurrection for all who trust in Him as their Saviour.
