Will her faith and strength withstand the bewildering surprise?
After all the planning and dreaming, Missie and Willie LaHaye were actually on the trail west in a covered wagon. Leaving behind the prairie home of Clark and Marty Davis, Missie finds herself caught between the elation of the new adventure and wondering if she'll ever see her family again.
But the hardships of the trail—the rain, the mud, the impassable rivers, and even death—soon force Missie and Willie to become rugged pioneers. Missie must learn how to live her faith as she faces homesickness, boredom, and deprivation.
And, then, when they finally arrive at their new home, she is pushed to the limits of her endurance.
