Item Description...
Overview
Astrid Bjorklund believes that her medical training is best used for overseas missionary work and so travels east to attend missionary training school, but a deadly measles outbreak at the Indian reservation nearby her home in the Red River Valley may turn out to be her true missionary calling. Simultaneous.
Publishers Description
Astrid Bjorklund wants to use her medical training to serve God and feels that He might be leading her in the direction of missionary work. Smarting from a misunderstanding with Joshua Landsverk, the young man she thought she loved, she heads east to a missionary training school, hoping to eventually use her skills in some remote outpost in Africa.
When she is called home unexpectedly to help in a family medical emergency, Astrid learns of a deadly measles outbreak on the nearby Indian reservation. She immediately senses the Spirit tugging her to help the Indians and wonders if her "mission field" is not so far away as she had imagined. But if she follows God's call, will love pass her by? |

 | Life on the Pairie Jun 7, 2010 |
| This is a very interesting book - I love all of her books - she is my type of writer. Clean story, hard working pairie people - helping each other. I wish I could have lived in that time frame of life. I have several of her books and will continue to buy and keep all that she writes in the future. I share my copies with my oldest Granddaughter, as we both enjoy her books. This is the type of book for young girls to read and there is enough romance to make it interesting. | | | | No Distance To Far May 25, 2010 |
| As with all her books, this is such a great read. It leaves you wanting more. I can't wait for the next one in the series. The people in her books feel like family to me. | | | | No Distance Too Far-GREAT Book May 15, 2010 |
Astrid Bjorklund wants to use her medical training to serve God and she struggles with wondering if going to Africa to be a missionary is God's will in her life. Then, she is called home for a medical emergency in her family. She stays in Blessing, N.D. and helps her family and friends. Then, she receives a letter about an indian reservation who needs help because the indians are starving.
This book is Book Two in the Home to Blessing Series by Lauraine Snelling. This book is one of Lauraine Snelling's best books, in my opinion. I thoroughly loved it. In fact, I loved it so much, I didn't want to put it down.

No Distance Too Far (Home to Blessing)
Another book by Lauraine Snelling! She is my MOST FAVORITE author, and this book is worth waiting for! All of these books begin in several series (Red River Of The North - 6 bks, Return To Red River - 4 bks, Daughters Of Blessing - 4 bks, and Home To Blessing - 2 bks). I highly recommend that you read the whole previous 3 series and the first Home To Blessing book before you read this one. "No Distance Too Far" (#2 in the Home To Blessing series). This book begins right in one of the hearts of the Bjjorklund family, with Astrid. She begins her journey in Georgia, in missionary school. Her family and friends are very shocked with her decision to leave them, and go onto the mission field in Africa for 2 years. A member of the family from Norway has come to help Ingeborg with the home and little Emily. A little voice is found at a very emotional time for Ingeborg. Their daily life is a Christian life (as we have seen throughout all of the series that Snelling has written regarding Blessing, North Dakota). Joshua meets a new member of the community that has returned. His job (drilling wells) takes him off, with two of the other teens in town. A pregnancy occurs, and you will not want to miss what happens with that! As Astrid's decision making becomes harder and more critical for her... he Lord opens her eyes as she goes back to the roots. This is an emotional story, and very intriguing to me. Imagine being sent off over the ocean, in 1904? Astrid is VERY committed to her faith, and eventually hears God and makes the critical decision. I thought it was a wonderful book. It brings us HOME to Blessing, and I can't wait for the next book!! As usual, I found this book very hard to put down, and gobbled it up in two sittings! Thanks Lauraine! Keep writing the words of wonder, faith, and love exactly as you write them in your picture painting words, and taking us with you as you write the Blessing families lives!
