The Heart of Mary with Kim Derrick

Mamas in Spirit

"This is a story God wrote." God planted a seed in Kim's young heart to accompany and care for the sick and dying as an adult. Kim was raised in a family in which the members surrounded one another in all the joys and sorrows of life, including death. She didn't realize until adulthood that this was not every person's experience. As a hospice nurse it broke Kim's heart that there were so many people poor and dying who had nowhere to go. With the help of Saint Edward Church in Nashville, TN and others who shared in her desire to help the poor and dying, Kim created "The Heart of Mary House" to love God's children during their final days as Our Blessed Mother would want.
