As Bernice's dementia worsens, her vivid, seemingly imaginary Bible studies lead to strange, uplifting phenomena. A pastor believes it is Bernice's lifelong devotion that causes the dementia to take the form of ministering to others, even as her transition nears. Then one night, the room fills with light, winged beings appear and a loud chorus of singing bursts forth, and Bernice peacefully passes into eternal rest. This leaves her daughter, Rebecca, to grapple with the tangible presence of faith and the divine. Comparable works include Touched by an Angel
