Mennonite Meets Mr. Right By Rhoda Janzen

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Rhoda Janzen, author of the # 1 New York Times bestselling Mennonite in a Little Black Dress, is back with MENNONITE MEETS MR. RIGHT: A Memoir of Faith, Hope and Love, a hilarious and heartfelt memoir about her return to faith and love, all while facing some serious Lady Problems.

What does it mean to give church a try when you haven’t really tried since you were twelve?  At the end of Mennonite in a Little Black Dress, Rhoda Janzen had reconnected with her family and her roots, though her future felt uncertain.  But when she starts dating a churchgoer, this skeptic begins a surprising journey to faith and love.  Instead of returning to the dignified simplicity of the Mennonites, she finds herself hanging with the Pentecostals, who know how to get down with sparkler pom-poms.  Amid the hand waving and hallelujahs Rhoda finds a faith richly practical for life – just in time to stare down breast cancer, embrace an unexpected romance and fall in love with a quirky new family.
