This is the story of a children's home run entirely on charitable gifts by two Englishwomen, Wendy Blackmur and Valerie Coniber, who followed an English missionary to Hong Kong and to the Home of Loving Faithfulness, for children with the severest mental and physical handicaps. Many of the children have been adopted, including two by Wendy Blackmur and Valerie Coniber themselves. The author is a journalist and freelance writer, and was a regular volunteer helper at the Home of Loving Faithfulness when she lived in Hong Kong.
