Lena Wengerd has the truest hands the district midwife has trained in thirty years—and a secret that could cost her everything. Since a fall from the haymow at fifteen, her left leg has grown steadily weaker. Ashamed of becoming a burden, she has hidden the truth from her family, from her mentor, and from Levi Glick, the quiet wheelwright's son who faithfully drives her home after every singing.
Then, on a bitter October night, everything changes. A newborn baby girl is left on Lena's porch in a market basket, with eight penciled words pinned to her blanket.
And before dawn, Levi disappears without a single word of goodbye. By Sunday, the church has done its arithmetic'''and reached one devastating conclusion.
While Lena raises the abandoned child and defends the man everyone believes has betrayed her, Levi is forty miles away honoring a promise he cannot explain. The silence meant to protect the people they love is slowly weaving a web neither of them can escape.
As whispered accusations spread through the district, Lena's carefully guarded secret grows harder to hide. And when two long-kept promises collide on one ordinary staircase, the truth threatens to shatter every life it touches.
Rich with faith, hope, and quiet courage, The Baby on Lena's Porch is a heartwarming Amish romance about sacrificial love, unexpected family, and the extraordinary grace that can be found when the truth finally comes home.
