A compelling and often humorous saga that spans more than three decades to chronicle hurt and leanness, struggle and triumph.How a fifty-nine year-old woman cast her lot with the mountain people of Haiti and suffered through drought and flood, hurricane and want, to help them find a better way.The mission Bertha “Granny” Holdeman helped start at Fermathe in Haiti began on a plot blighted by voodoo curse. Today, it ministers to countless people, providing hope as well as help.From Eleanor... “I really think it is very hard to tell about Granny. She is something that one feels and from her spirit each gains a different inspiration and light. She is like and impressionist painting, yet at the same time solid and tangible, always there and timeless.We pray that he story will share her and Haiti with others, and through it show forth Him who has made Granny what she is and to Whom she has a single eye.” (From a letter from Eleanor Turnbull, Granny’s daughter in Haiti.)
