The Quest for the Holy City, (Paperback)

When her mother has a vision of the world and their family's purpose upon Christ's return to earth, Mariella is suddenly sent to live on the island for seven years to train. Although her mother didn't reveal all that she saw, Mariella knew her family will have a purpose in his holy place, and she is eager to prove her worthiness. In preparation for the day he will call her and her family to serve him in his sacred home, Mariella eagerly awaits her first assignment on the earth she knows--to protect and fight for his people until he calls them to him--but when she herself is awoken from a dream and sets out to investigate a mysterious darkness, Mariella is pulled away from her family when they are taken to serve their destiny. Desperate to find them and the holy place she knew they would be, Mariella ventures out into a changed new world. Through chance circumstance, new allies, and a mysterious new enemy who threatens the lives of God's chosen, Mariella finds that perhaps her true destiny was right before her eyes all along.
