The Amish Midwife

In "The Amish Midwife," nurse-midwife Lexie Jaeger journeys from Oregon to Pennsylvania Amish country fueled by her quest to uncover her biological family, sparked by a dusty box containing locks of hair and an old letter. While assisting the troubled lay-midwife Marta Bayer, whose client and baby tragically died, Lexie takes on a new patient load and learns the meaning of "demut," embracing a path of trust and reliance on God. This engaging tale of identity and faith is the first in the Women of Lancaster County series, celebrated for its exploration of family roots and love.
