Like the coolness of
snow at harvest time is a trustworthy messenger to those who send him; he
refreshes the spirit of his masters. Proverbs 25:13
The Birdhouse
Twenty-year old Greta Miller’s daed has been injured in a farming
accident during the summer. The supportive Amish community tries to help out,
but Gretta and sister must work outside the home to make ends meet. Greta rent
a booth at the Farmers’ Market. Because Greta is still in her rumspringa and
free to explore the world, her family selects her to sell her homemade jams,
jellies, and preserves to Englischers.
Josh wants to court Greta, but years ago, he made the mistake of
rejecting her during a seemingly innocent game—which resulted in him leaving the
Amish. Three years later, he’s back and she wants nothing to do with him. Josh struggles
to fit in and rebuild relationships he’s destroyed. Knowing Greta’s family
needs help, he steps in, hoping to win Greta back. When Greta admires one of his birdhouses, he
gives it to her, hoping that would help to open the door to more.
But as their friendship begins to grow a series of unfortunate events
pull Greta away from the Amish, leaving her rejected by those she loves. Will Greta
get beyond her family’s distrust and return home? How will she prove her
innocence? Or will she remain outside her Amish community?
