Moon
By Janie Webster
Fingernail
Moon, the true story of a mother
and daughter’s courageous journey. An inspiring story
of Janie Webster’s daring quest to save her daughter’s
life.
When
Webster discovered that her husband had sexually abused their
daughter, her seemingly content life changed forever. She
began divorce proceedings, but the court allowed unsupervised
visits between father and daughter. Then her husband was diagnosed
with AIDS. Terrified that he could further abuse and even
infect their daughter, Janie Webster knew that she had to
flee.
Mother
and daughter embarked on a five-year journey around the world.
Although often discouraged, they found within their physical
journey a deep spiritual meaning. With God’s guidance,
they established and reestablished new lives in the countries
where they stayed, finding people they could trust who provided
them with friendship and assistance. Despite the threat of
deportation and imprisonment hanging over them, they sensed
the hand of God engineering their safe passage.
