Quilt of Grace
by Joyce Brandt Williams
Lillian Denbeigh’s wedding-ring-patterned “encouragement quilt,” a bridal shower gift from her mother’s missionary society friends, comes with their promise of daily prayers. And does Lillian ever need them!
The hardships encountered on the trek west are enough to make a girl question her faith—and her sanity. And Lillian does both. When her world falls apart, God’s grace (and her quilt) comes to the rescue—restoring her to life and love; giving her a future and a hope—Hope Orphanage.
