Hello, my lovely readers! Sorry for the absence last week. With graduation looming and my jobs getting crazy, I completely forgot to post. But I remembered this week! New this week: I'm going on a missions trip! Maybe. If I can raise the funds in time, I'll be going with my church's adult missions trip group to the Dominican Republic. ( http://www.bimi.org/countries/dominicanrepublic.php ) The team will be helping with a construction project for our church's missionaries there, Mr. and Mrs. Autrey. The trip is scheduled for Friday, July 18 through Friday, July 25. To earn money for the trip, I'm working several jobs this summer and selling handmade necklace pendants. I'm going through neighborhoods, work, and my church with a catalog: Interested purchasing one of your own? Email me and we'll talk! Shipping will be higher for mailing, but all other prices remain the same. emilyrachellewrites@gmail.com

When eighteen-year-old Levi returned from Denver City with his latest scavenged finds, he never imagined he’d find his village of Glenrock decimated, loved ones killed, and many—including his fiancée, Jem—taken captive. Now alone, Levi is determined to rescue what remains of his people, even if it means entering the Safe Lands, a walled city that seems anything but safe. Omar knows he betrayed his brother by sending him away, but helping the enforcers was necessary. Living off the land and clinging to an outdated religion holds his village back. The Safe Lands has protected people since the plague decimated the world generations ago … and its rulers have promised power and wealth beyond Omar’s dreams. Meanwhile, t...
