PRAYERS OF A STRANGER PB

She ventured to answer a stranger’s prayer, only to receive an answer to her own.

Amanda Vance is ambivalent about her husband’s idea for a big family holiday up north. She had once planned a special Christmas in their own home, carefully preparing a nursery and the keepsake ornaments. Now that room stands as empty as her heart.

Then a neighbour’s mishap turns into a last-minute invitation – Amanda is offered a place on a tour to the Holy Land. At the urging of her husband, Chris, she reluctantly agrees to go. The unexpected journey leads to an even more astonishing lesson.

An extraordinary turn of events allows Amanda to help answer a young mother’s plea for a healing. Filled with a sense of awe, Amanda visits the place of Jesus’ birth. There, she discovers anew the miracle of the Christ child – God incarnate as a tiny, vulnerable baby.

Her return to Florida marks a momentous shift in her soul, in her calling and in her marriage. She responded to the prayer of a stranger, but will Amanda’s own prayer – to be happily surrounded by a large and loving family – ever be fulfilled?
