To Catch a Thought

Our pocket-size mini book TO CATCH A THOUGHT was produced from a most generous grant from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation. This grant supports the production and distribution of this mini book, which combines photographic images with verses of inspirational poetry, in both print and digital formats. Established in 2010, the Light of Healing Hope Foundation provides books of hope as gifts to hospitals and other organizations to provide comfort for patients and their families at a time of adversity. The mini book combines poetry and images meant to inspire hope, courage, love, and comfort.

The Light of Healing Hope Foundation (LHHF) has provided free illustrated, inspirational poetry books (including musical accompaniment DVDs) for hospitals to distribute to patients, family members, or caregivers. Likewise, LHHF does not charge the hospitals or hospice distributors for its books which are shipped free of charge to such health care providers. In order to encourage the healing process, LHHF further provides Healing Message booklets for patients to write or draw their own thoughts to nurture the spiritual healing from within.
