Christmas of Hope - Diane Craver - Bog

Some of Fields Corner's favorite Amish characters fall in love, experience jealousy, work at extra jobs, deliver babies, and two are in an accident. Through all the challenges, life continues with hope in their hearts. Rachel Weaver decides to visit her husband, Samuel, at his furniture business and takes lunch to him. When she arrives at his store with their daughter in her arms, Rachel is surprised to see a beautiful Englisher, Bridget, laughing and talking with him. Jealousy causes Rachel to consider returning to work part-time at the bakery next to Samuel's store. She will see Samuel more and can eat lunch with him. Keeping tabs on her handsome husband and baking her famous pies in the Weaver's Bakery becomes Rachel's objective. Bishop Amos' daughter, Molly, isn't happy that her sister-in-law, Violet can't deliver her third baby. After all, Violet delivered her first two babies and everything went well. Violet's baby is due in November, so she is taking several months off as a midwife. With Molly's baby due in December, she needs to accept that a doctor will deliver her baby. As it gets closer to Christmas, Rachel's faith is tested, and she is reminded again how fragile life is. When Molly delivers her baby, she realizes that God knows best.
