About Author Kim Schuette
Kim was a young military chaplain trainee attending graduate school in Boston when he met Peter and Rose Henniker-Heaton. He was touched by Peter’s kind and ready acceptance of him. Kim took encouragement from being regarded as an equal in the eyes of this esteemed writer and editor.
Kim followed school with a career in the US Army chaplaincy and afterward wrote two books about the activities of the Christian Science church in military ministry. These were followed by Peter Henniker-Heaton: Man of Joy both in text and as an Audible book. Kim is researching his next book about Rose Henniker-Heaton.

He embraced all his identities. He wrote about these things for decades in his poetry and other writings. The smallest things, as well as the largest, seemed to amuse and astonish and delight him.

The diaries show that he continued this healing ministry during the War. Upon the end of the war he was able to overcome its aftereffects.
