Showing results for "The Stranger" in Amish & Mennonite

Ava Troyer never really considered the possibility of life outside of the warm, protective Amish community. Even during her state-mandated schooling through the eighth grade, she would dreamily fantasize about whether any of the other Amish boys in the history class right after lunch was going to be the father of her children, or if she would meet the man of her dreams from another state, an exciting possibility.

Eva couldn't quite understand why this quiet outsider was so mysterious. Why did he leave the Englischer life behind? Why did the townsfolk talk about him in hushed tones as he walked by? Eva convinced her friends to accept the stranger, to help him find Gott and heal his soul.... Then Hannah went missing.... The townsfolk searched and found her lifeless soul...hidden deep in the woods. Was it the stranger? Is she in danger? Despite her fear, she knows that she, like all of us, must face the stranger inside....
