When the little town of Graceton, Minnesota, became a fledgling mission’s focus of attention, George and Dorothy Zook faced a tough decision. Would they be willing to move there? They looked at the challenges, and at the needy children and families of Graceton.
They went.
But going wasn’t easy. Their new home required attention. They faced lonely days in a community where not everyone appreciated them. Making a living was a struggle, and they cut corners to pay the bills. But George and Dorothy believed if they did their part, God would give them strength for the trials.
Patiently they reached out to neighbors and townspeople, visiting them, helping them, and inviting them to church. The barriers of suspicion and awkwardness melted away. Church attendance grew and lives were influenced.
Because They Cared is a tribute to George and Dorothy, two faithful people who trusted in God, loved a community, and pointed them to Christ the Saviour.
