Book Description: Lenore Lapp is an Amish schoolteacher in her late twenties still living at home with her parents and grandparents. She thought love had passed her by until she meets Jesse Smucker, a widower with a baby daughter. She quickly falls in love with them both and accepts Jesse’s proposal of marriage, but Jesse breaks off their engagement when he realizes he can’t marry only for convenience.
Resigned to living single, Lenore throws herself into caring for her elders. While working in her grandmother’s garden, she digs up an old jar. Will Lenore find healing for her broken heart and solve long-buried family secrets by reading the note contained inside?
My Thoughts: This third novel in The Prayer Jars by Wanda Brunstetter is my most favorite out of the three. Probably because it's about a school teacher and healing. Isn't God good to give us healing?

Lenora decides to forget about love and help her aging grandparents. Whole working in their garden one day she digs up a jar filled with slips of paper.
This is the beginning of the Healing Jar. Oh, what a read! O, What hope and healing!
Mrs. Brunstetter writes with such emotion that the reader feels as if she might be Lenora.
