Participation is open to anyone who hears this calling to them.

Heaven is Beautiful : How Dying Taught Me That Death Is Just a Beginning was written by Peter Baldwin Panagore. His story is an account of his near death experience while hiking in Alberta Canada when he was 21 years old. He was ice climbing the Lower Weeping Wall on Cirrus Mountain, Banff National Park. Several climbing mistakes resulted in Peter and his partner being stranded on the ice wall over night and experiencing hypothermia. Peter was well versed in the stages of hypothermia and was aware of his increasing confusion, clumsiness and sleepiness as the hypothermia increased. Peter struggled to stay awake but he was unable to and he slipped into death. He died on the side of the mountain and experienced forgiveness, unconditional love and bliss.
