Summary: Thirteen year old Cornelia and her family leave their Russian homeland because the czar had broken his promise, and an entire colony of Russian Mennonites was moving to Canada. Homesteading in Candada was difficult and meant struggling with harsh, primitive conditions. Deaths of loved ones left Cornelia shaken and bitter, her heart searching for peace. Despite the fact that her parents and grandmother had found the truth of salvation throgh faith in Jesus Christ, Cornelia struggles to understand and believe. A story of spiritual erosion, God's faithfulness, and restoration and hope, with a sobering reminder—our time of peace and prosperity could quickly change.
