Matilda grew up Amish in western Maryland. She was married in the Amish church. But after six good years of marriage, something began to go wrong.

How could she cope? How could she survive? It is possible, but not alone, for God heard her cry. She tells her story with hope that other women who find themselves similarly alone and shattered could find peace and ministry that brings healing to the soul.
