Amish Boy and a Mother's Prayer

An Amish Boy and a Mother s Prayer takes readers into the heart of Daviess County, Indiana, where Glen Graber was raised. His family was swiftly kicked out of the Old Order Amish church when Glen s dad bought a rubber-tired tractor. Then Glen s mother died, and left him with a request: She had been praying for a business that would alleviate the family s financial hardship, and asked Glen to take responsibility for the family s future. Despite the pressure, Glen and his family found hope and humor each day as God miraculously answered their mother s prayer. More than a biography, this book is about a boy being determined to change his place in the world, and the miraculous reversals of misfortune. It s about the prayers of a mother, the idiosyncrasies and love of a father, and the strength of a family. It is, in other words, the story of us."
