As you will discover in this personal account, great grandma can mean all those things and moretough, hardworking, faithful, and highly protective. This book is about a great grandmothers lifefrom her birth in remote Vaznikiai Village in Lithuania in 1891 to traveling to Baltimore under an assumed name in 1912, to marrying another immigrant from a different social economic class in 1914, to the difficult circumstances that she and her siblings faced in building new lives in the United States. Her story is probably very similar to immigrants from her day but has somehow been forgotten. Through old letters, interviews, and genealogical documents, Iewa Dobaites or Grandma Evas life is recalled and her legacy to her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren becomes clear.

Legacy--everyone has one to give. What will be your legacy? Jensen explores the motif of legacy through the lens of the apostle Paul and one of his last letters to his spiritual son Timothy. It is an intensive exploration of the universal human endeavor to pass something of worth to a subsequent generation. Jensen weaves a tapestry of exegesis, theological excursus, psychological integration, and contemporary pastoral dilemmas to underscore the need for legacy in its various kinds. Pastors and fathers/mothers are challenged to find their Timothy for the express purpose of faithful transmission of gospel and ministry.

Over the past few years there has been a surge of interest in Britain on grandparenting - although it is still a long way behind the USA and several European countries in research in the area. The driving impetus for research is coming from parenting organizations and government departments concerned about the effects on female employment of shortages in nursery places, and about the effect of "parenting deficits" on children. Greater involvement of grandmothers in caring for children has seemed to offer a solution to many related problems. It promises to improve care within the family, and enable mothers to take on paid work with fewer fears for the consequences, without removing other working adults in the family from their jobs. This text discusses how today's grandmothers are changing the image and role that they filled in the past.
