Grace Interlaced

Virginia Heslinga

Twelve-year-old Virginia is the babysitter and big sister. She was supposed to ensure the safety of her three charges. But now, watching the fire destroy her house, hearing the crowd's wild speculations, watching the firefighters' efforts, and wondering when her parents will return, she feels the consequences of having rescued only two of the three little children. She wishes she had died in the struggle to get them out.The fire causes Virginia to disconnect from emotions, lose trust in crucial relationships, and build a protective wall around her heart. Only God's repeated interventions can break through grief, guilt, blame, and fears.

Praise for this book

"As a former fire chief and 30-plus-year veteran of

emergency services, reading Grace Interlaced drew me

into the deeply emotional story of a family tragedy

many in the emergency services community rarely see.

This story leaves an appreciation for the effort to heal and develop

as a human." I. D. Daniels, Ph.D., CSD, VPS


"Grace Interlaced is truly an inspirational story for

anyone who is seeking God's grace in their own life

journey. Virginia Heslinga eloquently expressed

her innermost thoughts as she shares her

narrative of overcoming tragedy. A wonderful read that

is heartening to the soul!" Randi Marcinkiewicz, Licensed Mental Health Counselor
