Reuniting What Belongs

Faith and medicine are often treated as separate worlds. We believe they work together. When in partnership they offer a fuller vision of healing that attends to both body and soul.

Through research, clinical care, ministry, and lived experience, we seek to help people accompany those facing serious illness with dignity, compassion, and hope.

This harmony does not involve coercion or proselytizing, but a commitment to compassionate presence and sacrificial service.

As a physician and a pastor, Tracy and Michael care for those facing serious illness and help train others to do the same. Walking Lois Home reflects their shared conviction that faith, medicine, and compassionate presence belong together.
