The Fervent

Finally aware he must put yet another tragedy behind him, Bob Garrett divides his time between developing an adult education program and attempting to prove to his devoted wife how much he appreciates the new meaning she has given to his life. Together, and with the assistance of the existing and some new members of their close-knit group, they share in helping the center to become one of the most enjoyable places in the area for the community to gather. Although his original intent was just to give his wife the experience of getting close to and meeting some Amish people, Bob gets caught up in wanting to learn more about the lifestyle of these gentle folk, himself. An unplanned stop in a town they hadn't previously visited develops a relationship with an unorthodox young couple who create an even stronger desire in Bob and his bride to look more seriously toward moving to the area. It is while struggling to justify their decision that a nemesis from the past appears, which not only threatens their plans for the immediate future, but their very lives as well.
