Sanctuary

David continues to have a trust issue eventhough his abusive stepfather and mother died in a car crash. Mark does his best as a foster parent to remain calm and explain his few rules. Then a deaf child named Freddie comes to live with them for a short stay after his great-uncle is injured. Mark feels a need to carry pen and paper, but David has begun sign language at church. Freddie loves to joke using a play on words to confuse David. Freddie learns about Jesus for the first time, not even knowing the correct sign. The two boys become close, much like real brothers. ""Heartwarming tale of a boy whose physical and spiritual needs are met by his foster father. Describes the boy's background of abuse and abandonment by his step-father. Honestly portrays the feelings of his foster father."" Rebecca French Day, BSW, LSW
