Amish Knitting Circle Christmas: Granny & Jeb's Love Story

Granny Weaver started a knitting circle believing women are stronger spun together, just like her wool.

But she was young once with her own struggles. In 1963 Deborah Byler was twenty-one and had turned down seven marriage proposals from hopeful suitors in Millersburg, Ohio.

At her parent's request, she goes to live with relatives in the new Amish settlement in Smicksburg, Pennsylvania, praying she'll find a match. Jeb Weaver lives in a strict Swartzentruber Amish settlement, and he can no longer abide under the rules of the Ordnung.

His older brother left the family farm and settled in Smicksburg, and convinces Jeb to do the same. When Jeb meets Deborah, he finds her too liberal and outspoken. Deborah thinks Jeb is judgmental and a complete stick in the mud.

Their constant clashing makes sparks fly. Will an African American man, who hitchhikes around the country to attend Martin Luther King Jr. marches, help Jeb and Deborah see their own prejudices? "Karen Anna Vogel again brings us another heartwarming Granny & Jeb story.

A love that surrounds all those who read it." Pamela Jarrell Whoopie Pie Book Club
