Ending Well Ellen Rosenberger

Are you returning to your home country after living internationally and wondering how you are going to survive the transition? Are you a family member or a friend of someone returning from overseas and want to know how to understand and love them through their re-entry? Perhaps you returned "home" a while ago and never truly processed the emotions involved in your move. Ending Well takes a look at the multi-faceted process of moving from host country to home country. Whether you are a missionary, an embassy worker, in the military or a global worker of any kind, this book addresses the pain, the stress, the excitement, and the hope of thriving in an international move. Through personal stories and journal entries Ellen Rosenberger, author of Missionaries Are Real People, takes you into her family's journey of moving from Managua, Nicaragua to Littleton, Colorado. She demonstrates how a healthy, thriving transition is possible. Having lived as a missionary kid in Bolivia and a missionary in Nicaragua for the majority of her life, Ellen has been through decades of hellos and goodbyes. In Ending Well, Ellen invites you into a story of grieving, releasing, hoping, and trusting. Ellen writes honestly of her experiences in a way that resonates with anyone who has spent time overseas or has made a move of any kind. Ending Well normalizes the variety of emotions experienced before and during re-entry. In its pages you will find practical steps to closing a chapter of life overseas and opening a new one back in your home country. Ending Well demonstrates that thriving in an international move is possible if you are willing to take the time, invest in the resources, and prepare yourself well.
