Robby's Star, A Novella

The hustle and bustle of last minute-to-do Christmas lists can become overwhelming. Rina, the leader of St. Pauls Home for the Displaced, knows this all to well as she opens her to-do list this Christmas morning. Yet, this morning she added a special task to the list. Rina is determined to find a way of helping Robby place the traditional Christmas Star atop the home's tree. Unfortunately, with her petite size, the trees height and the young boys disabling condition, she would need help to brighten Robbys Christmas and make it possible. Would she find someone to help, or would they be racing around to finish their lists as well? Will Robby be able to place the star on the tree or will this be another disappointing year reminding him of his limitations?

Racing to complete her to-do list in less than a day, Rina prays to God for a miracle. Like any prayer, Rina will soon find out how much God loves her by answering her in the most unsuspecting ways. Robby's Star captures a timeless message of God's hope and love through the little miracles we often miss.
