The Courage to Grow Old

“I think growing older is both funny and sad, but mostly it just makes me grateful to be alive and able to reflect. I have been an Episcopal priest for 33 years and have had extensive experience in ministering with the elderly. Now, I am growing old myself. I hate it when people are ashamed of being old. We should be proud!”

Funny, warm, direct, honest, and vulnerable, Crafton reflects on aging and celebrates life.
