I Know Who Holds Tomorrow — Catherine Ritch Guess

When Mary Magdalena Redford chaperones an Alternative Spring Break project to the devastated Gulf, she finds herself haunted by a gnawing desire to do more. Yet, in the shadow of her past, she wrestles the inadequacies she feels holding her back. That s until the example set by missionary grandparents takes her from her home in Hancock County, Ohio, to Hancock County, Mississippi. Through the eyes of Hurricane Katrina s victims, namely the children with whom she works and one dedicated librarian, she receives a new understanding of faith and total trust and the word resilience. In the process of reaching out to those less fortunate, Mary Magdalena realizes she is the one learning the greatest lesson and receiving the supreme blessing. Catherine Ritch Guess, author of 20 books, relies on her many experiences with Katrina s children to weave a story of fiction and intrigue through real events of the Gulf s horrific hurricane in this new trilogy following her Sandman Series. She is the founder and executive director of a non-profit organization dedicated to children s literacy and cultural arts in areas of natural disaster."
