It was just another Monday morning. The people of Nickel Mines, Pennsylvania, went about their daily lives, tending their farms and heading off to work or school. Only one man had any idea what this particular Monday would hold. One man…and the God in whom he no longer believed.
Certainly Rebecca Sue did not know. She never suspected that within hours, a world that had never heard of Nickel Mines would be talking of little else.
In the days and months that followed, Rebecca Sue, her family, and her community struggled to come to grips with the tragic events of that morning. The happening had left six dead, five wounded, and thousands shocked and grieving. Somehow they had to find peace, and forgive the man who had caused their grief. How refreshing to see the reaction of the grieving fathers and mothers of the innocent children who were so brutally killed and wounded at Nickel Mines. Instead of hate and revenge, they offered forgiveness.
The Happening presents true details of the Amish school shooting woven into a story told through the eyes and heart of a young survivor.
