Item Description...

Overview
The final volume in the "Mitford Years" series finds Father Tim contemplating the revival of a remote mountaintop church, a challenge he hopes will be his ultimate calling, but fears will be an impossible task.

Publishers Description
It's never too late.

Father Tim Kavanagh has been asked to "come up higher" more than once. But he's never been asked to do the impossible-until now. The retired Episcopal priest takes on the revival of a mountain church that's been closed for forty years. Meanwhile, in Mitford, he's sent on a hunt for hidden treasure, and two beloved friends are called to come up higher. As Father Tim finds, there are still plenty of heartfelt surprises, dear friends old and new, and the most important lesson of all: It's never too late.

Light from Heaven  Jan 30, 2007
A wonderful read. Takes you to a place where there is peace, love and a genuine sense of "family". One MUST read the whole series.
 
I don't really care to have met Agnes, Clarence, et al  Jan 28, 2007
I waited until the book came out in paperback to finish my collection for my bookshelf and purchased the Bedside Companion at the same time. I have been a Mitford Missionary since I read the first book. Clean, charming, engrossing, enlightening, encouraging, blessing were the adjectives I used. I was grossly disappointed in the last book, like so many others. It seemed as though the characters we all knew and loved were an afterthought. Having read the Bedside Companion, it seems that Ms. Karon felt the need to defend this sad finale by telling us that without it, we never would have met Agnes, Clarence, blah, blah, blah. Did anyone really CARE to meet these people? Did anyone even care about them much AFTER you'd met them? I certainly didn't, based on how many of their names I actually remembered. It all seemed so aimless and rambling. How many pages can it possibly take to tell Father Tim you'd had a child out of wedlock? The language even seemed either stilted or so over-the-top colloquial that it was difficult to digest at times. All the other books were something to look forward to in the evening. This one was a relief to put down.
 
Light from Heaven  Jan 19, 2007
Wonderful continuation of the Mitford series, too bad this is her last installment, but hey, Father Tim is 70 now... I understand her next series will be about his childhood, interesting to read about his youth after you know how he turns out as an adult. Probably will read this new series as I love how Karon writes.
 
great reading  Jan 16, 2007
Not as good as the first four books, but still a must to read.
 
Heavenly Entertaining  Jan 11, 2007
Father Tim is still the glue that holds the town together. This series of books are heart warming and inspirational. As you read the series you will become part of this loving and funny town. The characters seem so real you will feel you have known them all your life. I am sad to know this series had ended, but enlightened to know I can pick up and reread all the books again.
