THE IMPERFECT WELCOME
stories of an ordinary family, eclectic strangers, and the radical hospitality that brought them together
“Mr. John is our fun-loving, loud-talking, 6’4 Belgian giant. He happened into our lives because of his little dog, Max, and our little girl, Maddie.
Side-by-side, Maddie and Mr. John forged an unlikely friendship through their mutual love of animals and before long, he sat around our table sharing burgers, potato salad, and stories of life and heartache.”
“A thoughtful, challenging, heart-felt book from beginning to end.”
—Melissa, Illinois

"Alysa's approach to radical hospitality will expand your mind and enlarge your heart. She doesn't just tell us what to do— she shows us by example."
