Hope Found

This book was written to those who are struggling to find their way out of total darkness hoping to see a sliver of light. To those who feel God is silent and long to hear His whisper, you are not alone. His presence may be faint and dim, but we promise He is there and you will find Him waiting to meet you in places you never thought possible.

“Ginger Gilbert Ravella and Jim Ravella have served and sacrificed much for our country. Jim and Ginger's story of loss and tragedy turned to light and triumph, and the coming together of these two military families, inspires me. I do not take my freedom for granted nor the families like the Gilbert Ravella's who sacrifice for it. This family has taken their loss and turned it to the greater good. An uplifting story of love and faith.”
