Overshadowed

Kim Hartlinger is majoring in Spanish to do missions. Aleesha Jefferson is studying music and drama and aiming for Broadway. But Jo Snelling doesn't know what she wants to do. She doesn't even have a dream. No wonder she feels overshadowed by her BFFs. What is she good at doing, anyhow? Reading? Hmm. Not a career possibility. What's that, Pastor Ron? Lead a team of three on a mission trip to Nicaragua? Don't you know I'm not a leader? But Jo gives in and lets God take her out of her comfort zone and deposit her in the most poverty-stricken area imaginable, where she's responsible for teammates Aleesha and mid-teen Daphne. Each girl has a problem Jo can't solve. And Aleesha's problem makes her question Jo's leadership every time she makes a mistake. And then there's the pride-stricken leader of the other team they're supposed to work with. Better to leave him alone and pray he doesn't do too much damage. But at least she's able to teach her host pastor an important lesson about helping the helpless, resulting in a miracle of near-biblical proportions. Although the three girls come home changed, the problems they had before haven't disappeared. God helped them face the challenges in Nicaragua. Will He help them deal with their problems now?
