| Five years ago, in 1825, Missabella and her ten orphans"the “Switherby Pilgrims�"had voyaged from England to New South Wales, in primitive Australia. Missabella, now, is determined to provide for the future of her orphans according to each one's character. Not an easy task, with such a varied, ragtag, yet lovable set of personalities and backgrounds as they represent. Selina will train in Sydney to be a milliner; Paul may become a midshipman; Francis loves to farm. But what will satisfy clever, independent Cassie, who has ambitions to be a writer? The “Jamberoo Road� leads her inland, to the discomforts and enticements of being governess in a wealthy colonial family. Cassie's story, interwoven with that of all the other orphans' and their former farmhand Eben's, is both an account of personal growth and a vivid journey into early-day Australia. Ages 12 and up |

| The letter of James is a bridge from first-century believers to our lives today. James says, "Yes, Christianity can work-in a world that includes both haves and have nots, in a world of instability, Christian in-fighting, materialism and words without actions." In this framework, common to both early and contemporary Christians, James's goal for us is an active allegiance to the Lord Jesus Christ-faith expressed in action. |
