“God freely gave us the life of Eden Grace. Freely,” her husband Jim posted a few days after she passed. “This realization overwhelmed and enveloped me last night in a period of wakefulness. God had no obligation to give us this life. Like all of God’s gifts it was freely and abundantly given.”

Eden gave a message at Durham Friends on September 6, 2020 titled Telling the Truth About Whiteness. A collection of her essays can be found here.

From 2013 to 2020 she was Director of Global Ministries at FUM. Prior to that, she served FUM in Kenya.
