Faith for life's biblical resources support faith engagement for people with dementia and carers through the use of interactive devotional activities, reminiscent images and objects that may relate to faith or spiritual life.
For many, the cross is a sacred object that communicates beyond words and is a comfort to both the person with dementia and those providing care and support.
The Faith for Life crosses are hand crafted in Bethlehem out of olive wood, usually sourced from the normal pruning of branches that is part of the growing cycle.
They are light, smooth and fit easily into the palm of the hand to be held or gripped comfortably.
All of the Faith for Life resources encourage communicating in more than words and the Textures of God's love cards in particular encourage finding objects and items that may provide cues and reminiscence of faith and religious practice.
