What beautiful tributes to these women who left such powerful legacies of faith. I've always remembered a former pastor's wife who told all of her Sunday School students that a siren (police, rescue squad, fire department) was always a call to prayer because someone was in trouble and someone else might be putting themself in harm's way to go help them.
This beautiful article has encouraged me to dig deeper into the legacy I want leave, though I suspect the best way to do it is not to think so much but just to keep my eyes on God and my heart open to Spirit's guidance.
I love that story. I learned the siren prayer through a good friend when we were on a road trip together and she did that. Like you, I've never forgotten it and always think of her when I pray when I hear a siren.

Thank you Elizabeth! I love hearing about the legacy your grandmother left. In your own way I know you will do the same for your grandchildren!
Thank you for that encouragement, Renee. I do hope and pray so!
