The story in this book was about a family named Price going for a mission trip to the Belgian Congo, Africa. It was supposed to be only for a couple months, but at the end they stayed more than they foreseen. The author lets us see the insight of the events as they go through them from 4 out of 5 of the members of the family; Rachel, Adah, Leah, Ruth May, and Orleanna (being the mother). The only one who the author does not let us see is from the father’s point of view. At the beginning the mother

One day me and my youth group went on a mission trip. We went to this place where there was a horrible storm. I don’t remember what place it was and what storm that they had, but there village was destroyed. But when I got there I started to get cry, because I saw all of there houses and everything destroyed. What we wanted to did was to help them. We tried to help them find there families.
