Why the theme ‘forty one’ ?  The book of Genesis tells us that God caused it to rain for 40 days, flooding the earth.  A faithful man named Noah followed God’s command to build an ark to protect his family and two of every animal.  On the forty-first day, the rains stopped, but many days would pass before the waters ebbed.  Even during the devastation, God did not forget Noah.

 

 But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock that were with him in the ark, and he sent a wind over the earth, and the waters receded. – Genesis 8:1

 

            The theme, ‘forty one’, represents the calm wind that Noah’s Children provides a family caring for a child with a serious illness.  Noah’s is the reassurance that these very special children and their families are not forgotten.  Our hospice and palliative care program, through the love and support of God and others, promises hope for time without pain and suffering and for dignity and peace.
