#InspirationalFriday - who is in the photograph?
Eva Esch and her sisters are in a predicament. With the
passing of their widowed mother, Eva's older brother Menno
plans to move his growing family into the Eden Valley
farmhouse where they all grew up, leaving little room for
his three single sisters. Surely, Menno reasons, at least
one of them will marry this coming wedding season. Eva does hope to marry, but she isn't sure she wants to
give
up her sweet shop for the life of a farmer's wife, and she
has no other prospects. When younger sister, Lily, disappears in the night, leaving
only a brief note, Eva fears she has been wooed away from
the People by an outsider. And when Jed Stutzman, a young
Amish buggy maker from Ohio, shows up in Lancaster with a
photo of a Plain young woman, Eva's world begins to tilt. She feels powerfully drawn to the quietly charming
stranger--but the woman in the forbidden photograph is no
stranger at all. . . .
