Product Overview
Heartwarming, real life story of Mary Jones, a young girl living in rural Wales in the late 1700s. Mary was a popular girl who loved her parents, worked hard and was keen to learn but most of all she longed to have a bible of her own. But Mary knew that bibles were hard to come by and if she was fortunate enough to find one, it would be expensive so her dearest wish looked as if it would be an impossible dream! An inspiring story of a young girl's commitment to God and love for His word. How much do we appreciate our bibles? Do they sit on our shelf and gather dust or do we treasure them like the storehouse of golden promises and wisdom they are? Through hard work, determination, prayer, faith, and even a 50-mile barefoot walk, Mary Jones did whatever it took to obtain a copy of the Word of God. Mary's dream came true and her dedication to God inspired the setting up of a society that supplied faithful translations of the Bible throughout the world for many years. This is the inspiring story of one young girl's commitment to God and love for His word.
