Prayer Island Dedication and Christopher Evans Memorial Service
Memorials
Out of the love for our children, and from a heart desiring to share hope with others because of God's grace given to us through tragedy, there are a few special sites on Prayer Island that we would like to share with you.
John and Helen Jeanneret had already lost 2 children by suicide or drugs and were giving abundantly of their time, finances and energies to help beautify Prayer Island when I also experienced the loss of my son, Christopher Evans by suicide secondary to depression. Together, God has helped heal our broken hearts through relationship and a shared vision for creating this larger space for contemplative prayer and family healing. The Prayer Island project has become so much greater than we could imagine and the memorials are only a small and
personal part of what Prayer Island is about. Not a day goes by that someone is not blessed on Prayer Island and that is what makes all the effort so worthwhile. Dean Evans
