Amazing Grace

In our fast-paced society, it is easy to end up in situations that are beyond our

control. Children, especially, are oft en left to fend for themselves without prop-

er guidance or necessities. In Amazing Grace, author J. C. Lafler tells the story of

a group of young girls who fi nd themselves in an un-loving environment. The

oldest girl, eleven-year-old Sarah, takes the lead role in caring for the girls and

teaching them about life and faith. A baby left on their doorstep adds additional

strain to an already difficult situation, but brings the girls a sense of purpose

and togetherness. With the help of her childhood Bible and fading memories

of parents who taught her that faith can get you through most situations, Sarah

teaches the girls that belief in God and His resulting grace can overcome almost

anything, including an extremely mean and critical guardian. Amazing Grace is

a story of faith, forgiveness, and discovering love in the most unlikely of places.
