"What? Do I smell smoke?" Elizabeth sat up in bed when she heard Father open Jake's bedroom door.
"Jake, where are you?" Father called loudly.
"Here in the closet. Oh, Mr. Stutzman! I'm so sorry. So sorry for the mess," Jake gasped heavily.
Many years ago, nine-year-old Elizabeth and her younger brothers live in their happy home at Honey Run. When Father is ordained deacon for their church, life for their family changes. Father becomes very busy with church work, and he says that his children can be his helpers. Elizabeth is happy to be the deacon's helper, and she soon finds that their family's new role brings some special—and sometimes very surprising—experiences.
