In The Hawaiian Quilt the story is about Mandy and three of her friends taking a trip to Hawaii. It is a cruise from California to Hawaii, then from island to island and then cruising back to California. Well two of the girls; Mandy and Ellen miss the cruise ship and end up spending a number of months in Hawaii helping at a Bed and Breakfast. Mandy falls in love with a young man Ken, who she marries, and they settle in Indiana near to Mandy’s family.
In the Hawaiian Discover Ken and Mandy have opened a Bed and Breakfast in Indiana Ellen works for them at the B and B. Then the phone call. Ken’s dad has died back in Hawaii. Ken and Mandy decide that they need to go to Hawaii to help Ken;’s Mom during this time of loss. So they leave the B and B in the care of Ellen.
Ken and Mandy arrive in Hawaii and help take care of Ken’s parent’s Organic Chicken farm. It soon becomes apparent that they are going to need to spend quite a bit of time there in Hawaii. Ken goes surfing one day and is attacked by a shark and ends up almost dying.
Meanwhile, Mandy and Ken have put their Bed and Breakfast in Indiana up for sale and it sells and now Ellen is out of a job and is available to fly to Hawaii to be of comfort and assistance to her best friend Mandy.
Ellen is a big help and she becomes acquainted with a young man who is helping on the Chicken Farm. Ellen is Amish and the young man is English. You must read the book to learn how God worked this out for both.
“Cast thy burden upon the Lord and he shall sustain thee.” Psalm 55:22.
