Heather Mercer and Dayna Curry are two faithful women, who decided to bring a better life and a little hope to those in need. “Prisoners of Hope: The Story of Our Captivity and Freedom in Afghanistan” is the story of their work in Afghanistan, the people they love and would serve. The book reveals the compassion that brought these middle class American women, who gave up the comforts of home to serve the disadvantaged.
It’s a wonderful story about prayer, faith and a special calling from God. He gave them the strength to overcome the chaos they were thrown into, but survived the odds because not only their faith in God, including prayers from across America and around the world; they safely returned home.
This read will always remain in your heart. It causes the reader to think deeply regarding their own calling in life.
