Item description for Elsie's Tender Mercies (Life of Faith®, A: Elsie Dinsmore Series) by Martha Finley...
The Civil War has come to an end, but Elsie's troubles are not over. As she and her family face the aftermath of war, pure hearts and kind gestures are often misunderstood. Hidden dangers lurk everywhere, and the Travillas and Dinsmores find their Christi
Vi was deeply frightened. Sinking down at the base of the old tree, she began to cry. "Where am I? Oh, please help me, Jesus!" She continued to sob and pray, and somewhere in her mind, she remembered what her dear Mamma once told her: "If you are ever lost, stay where you are, and Mamma and Papa will find you. Call out to guide our steps." Huddled on the ground, she cried out, "Help me, Papa! Help me, Mamma! Please find me!"
Returning to the South after the end of the Civil War, Elsie and her family look forward to the new peace. But Else, her husband, and their five young children discover that their beloved homeland bears terrible wounds. The war has left anger and bitterness in its wake. Old resentments are revived. Secret forces gather, and violence is a constant threat. No one is safe from men who attack their innocent victims under the cover of darkness. When Elsie and her loved ones become the targets of hate-filled words and actions, will their faith be strong enough to protect them from harm?
In Elsie's Tender Mercies -- the seventh boo in the A Life of Faith: Elsie Dinsmore Series -- the Travillas and Dinsmores find their Christian faith and love challenged as never before. Their trust will be betrayed, and they will be asked to open forgiving hearts to friend and foe alike. Adapted from the 19th century novels of Martha Finley.

Reviews - What do customers think about Elsie's Tender Mercies (Life of Faith®, A: Elsie Dinsmore Series)?
 | THIS IS WATERED DOWN AND CHANGED Nov 3, 2006 |
| This book is a poor attempt at modern revision. It is totally ruined and changed. In my opinion it does not come near the value of the originals. If you want a good story, get the original Elsie classics. | | |  | One of the best Elsie books ever! Mar 17, 2004 |
This is the first of the "A Life of Faith" series that I have read, and I loved it. I read it all in one night, and it was so interesting!
Since I have read all of the original Elsie books I understood it all, and they made Elsie much more human. She had her bad days and flashes of temper, but she is always ready to apologize and makes a much better role model than the original Elsie.
I highly recommend this book, and all of the other Life of Faith books. I can't wait to read them all! | | | | Battle at Ion Jul 18, 2003 |
| Elsie has had a major influence on my life. The Travillas come home and find destruction. Then, an old enemy by the name of Tom Jackson, meets them again by a ku Klux klan attack on Ion plantation. It was a great book. I read that one over and over. | | | | The Best Elsie Book Ever! Jun 6, 2003 |
| This book is really great. Read it! | | | | Going home Jun 26, 2001 |
| The war is over and Elsie and her family have returned home only to find hearts are still bitter over the war and not very many in the south are willing to join the south with the union again.Love is the main factor as the Dinsmores and Travillas open their hearts to everyone even family members that are against them. | | | Write your own review about Elsie's Tender Mercies (Life of Faith®, A: Elsie Dinsmore Series)
