An Awakened Heart (Orphan Train): An Orphan Train Novella | Jody Hedlund

1 post | 2 read | 1 to read

Trying to heal the ache she feels in her empty life, wealthy Christine Pendleton decides to volunteer at Centre Street Chapel. Ministering to one of the most deprived parts of New York City, the chapel aims at making a difference in the lives of the impoverished immigrants flooding the city. After seeing firsthand the hopelessness of the poor women and orphans, Christine is convinced more can be done to help them. Guy Bedell has been serving at the chapel and pouring his heart out for the people he's grown to care about. When Christine begins to challenge his methods and offers a new vision for reaching out to the community, can he trust that perhaps God has bigger plans in store for him--plans that may include this feisty socialite?

An Awakened Heart (Orphan Train): An Orphan Train Novella | Jody Hedlund

pick

This was a good introduction to the characters in this series. The time period (1850s) and setting (New York City) are very interesting and bring to light the significant struggles to survive and thrive faced by turn of the century immigrants. This storyline is a tad more saccharine than I usually like, but I have high hopes for subsequent installments.
