PRESENCE
Bringing the Soul into Dying and Grieving
A Memoir and Guide
Sooner or later, we all come to face the reality of loss—our own or someone else’s. Presence is a gentle, illuminating guide to the sacred processes of dying, grief, and what lies beyond. Through personal stories, meditations, and reflections, Meghan Don offers simple yet profound ways to access deeper awareness when news of an imminent death arrives.
​
Drawn from lived experience and compassionate insight, Presence becomes a steadfast companion for those departing, those walking beside them, and those who remain. With love and radical honesty, it offers solace, clarity, and quiet strength for the final stages of a soul's journey, revealing love's enduring presence along the way.
Presence creates a space where you can soften, listen, and be held. Each page invites a deepening—into stillness, into tenderness, into the quiet wisdom of the soul that lives beneath fear and loss. This is not only a book, but a companion for the heart: luminous, wise, and deeply human.

Clare teaches us how to live in peace with our companions on this earth; through intimacy, friendship, and in community. Following Clare we enter into a practical and sacred journey of healing and companionship, addressing the longing inside each of us as we traverse this Earth in search of love. This book is a great companion itself. It is timely, as we all seek the wisdom in bringing ourselves together as a greater community on this Earth, learning how to live and love together in the name of the sacred. Meditations throughout the book will allow you to enter your own journey of contemplation and companionship, as a single person, in relationship, or as a community.
“A book like this can-and will-move you beyond any ‘birdbath Franciscanism’ into a spirituality that is for women and men, for celibates and partnered, for extroverts and introverts, for people with souls and bodies, and even people both Christian and non Christian.”
- Fr. Richard Rohr, O.F.M., author of Immortal Diamond, and Just This: Prompts and Practices for Contemplation
“Embodying the guiding wisdom of St.Clare of Assisi, this book gently illuminates our personal, sacred journeys toward the Beloved within, through the mirrors of partners and community. Saint Clare is a peerless example of the path to God and the relinquishing of the ego-self, expressed both through her personal relationship with Francis and in her role as founder and leader of the radical Poor Clares. Don's radiant prose and thoughtfully chosen quotations support each of us to enter into sacred relationship with the truth of who we are.”
