Members of the Memorial
Hermann Memorial City Volunteer Organization share in the dedication
of Prayers: A Sacred Sampler, quilted by The Rev. Terry Thomas
Primer, a New Jersey artist and chaplain. The 60-inch square quilt,
commissioned by Memorial Hermann
Memorial City Chaplaincy Services, was designed to reflect the swirl
of emotions a hospital stay can engender for patients and their families,
surrounded by windowpanes representing the mix of compassion and technology
that make hospitals sanctuaries of hope and comfort.
