At the age of not quite 30 years old, Carol found herself unexpectedly a widow with five young children to raise. Nothing in her 15 year tumultuous marriage could have prepared her for the events that would soon shape and forge the path to a life only the Lord could produce. This book is a compilation of journals written during that journey. Enjoy a front row seat as you witness and learn how God takes a business arrangement and turns it into a beautiful marriage bond capable of overcoming every turmoil, trial, and sometimes even terror of building a new church in a land dark, desolate and extremely cold. They were brought together by chance some might say, but stayed together for a greater purpose by Divine Destiny.
