Mother and Daughter Share Love and Service
“It wasn’t until a couple of years ago that I realized just how much my mother – in fact, both of my parents – did for me. What they have given to me and to all of us in my family is amazing. All of the time, all of the money, all of the effort they have given to us is amazing,” says Mercy Ships crewmember, Michelle Cristion. For Michelle’s mother, Connie Cristion, these heartfelt words from her daughter have special meaning. When Michelle was born with a cleft lip and palate, Connie was initially very scared. “To me it was like seeing the back side of a tapestry. What I saw was the side that had the knots – the disaster so to speak. But now, before me, is the real side of Michelle that God has woven for us. Michelle is this wondrously beautiful tapestry who is a gift in so many ways.”
