A summer mission trip opens a wider world

Eleven-year-old Abygail expects to spend summer at home, but a church mission trip takes her to Jamaica, away from her familiar routines. There, meeting Amara gives the trip a personal connection as the girls explore the island and share stories. The narrative brings together service, friendship across cultures, and Abygail’s growing understanding of the book’s central faith idea: that God’s love reaches across places and communities. Identified as the third book in the Light of Hope series, it centers on a young protagonist adapting to a new place and finding common ground with someone whose life is different from her own.

Book overview

Eleven-year-old Abygail thought her summer would be spent at home with friends. But when her church made the announcement of a mission trip to Jamaica, her familyencouraged her to take the chance and go. Far from the familiar streets of her neighborhood, Abygail finds herself in a place where the sun shines brighter, the ocean sparkles bluer, and the people speak with warm, musical voices.

At first, she feels out of place-missing her friends, her routine, and everything she knows. But when she meets Amara, a kind and spirited Jamaican girl, Abygail begins to see her trip in a whole new light. Together, they explore the island, share stories, and discover that even though they come from different places, they have more in common than they ever imagined.

Through new friendships, acts of service, and heartfelt moments, Abygail learns that God's love truly is everywhere-crossing oceans, cultures, and hearts.
