Tales from Grace Chapel Inn

review 1: If you have been reading this series, you already know Alice, Louise & Jane. If not, let me briefly say they are 3 sisters who turn their old Victorian family home into Grace Chapel Inn after their father(pastor of next-door Grace Chapel) dies. In each book, the reader gets to know the sisters, the other residents of Acorn Hill and the guests that are staying in the Inn at that time.In this book, the town of Acorn Hill and nearby Potterston are combining forces for an all-school class reunion. The sisters are in the thick of it, not only hosting guests who are attending the reunion, hosting non-reunion guests but also each is doing their part to make the reunion a success. This particular book is mostly focused on Jane, the youngest sister who is also an accomplished chef ... moreand an artist. She feels definite prodding from God to pray for certain guests and to do what she can to help others - some of whom just seem sad/despondent, others who are having marital difficulties and one in particular who was very cruel to Jane when she was still in high school. Through it, Jane sees God's hand but also comes to realize that she must learn to leave certain things to God.A wonderful story with wonderful lessons for us all.
review 2: Love these stories.Jane likes to help everyone. She has all sorts of people who come around to stay in the inn. They have their problems and she tries to help. All of the sisters, pray for their visitors. The ones staying this time seems to be needing prayer more. Whether fussing over which way they should go or feeling let down.With the reunion, everyone is pitching in to help since the restaurant has said they could not do all the meals.The visitors: Mr Enrich, had his problems with always working. His wife left with their son.Zach and Nancy wanted to open a restaurant which they each had dreamed of. Clarissa helped them to achieve their goals.Clarissa's kids wanted her to stop working so hard. But she only knew how to work, she did not know how to sit around. Her knees were hurting her.She learned there is more things to do than work, and she got great enjoyment out of it.The reunion for everyone was a success. It was busy for a lot of people trying to get it planned and then carried out those plans when everyone came to town.Loved this book. less
