BOOK EXCERPT

The Letter Excerpt 3

A parishioner approached, and he gave Grace a gentle smile as he turned his attention toward the man. 

“Grace?” Her mother’s gentle voice.

Ruby Stratton smiled gently as she motioned for Grace to join her. The widowed woman was nowhere to be seen.

“Are you all right, my dear? You seem a little... quiet.”

“Am I not usually quiet?”

“You know what I mean. What is the matter?”

There was no annoyance in her mother’s tone, no judgement. She was as kind and gentle a woman as Grace had ever met. Another reason why Grace was sick of all the gossip and subterfuge that permeated their everyday lives. How was she ever to serve God freely in this place when every word and look from judgemental strangers seemed only to forge another link in the chain around her heart?

Maybe God would answer her prayers — call her to go elsewhere. Or, maybe there was more He had to teach her here, first.

A thought she couldn’t bear to dwell on at present.

Grace sighed in frustration. “Oh, nothing but small-minded gossip mongers.”

A shadow of melancholy passed across her mother’s face for a split second. She smiled and looked down. “Oh, Grace... Not everyone is as kind as your father. You know that.”
