Cecile, a young nurse, leaves a promising relationship and all the comforts of home when she answers the call to be a missionary in Africa. But harsh conditions, homesickness, and threats from the government, make her wonder if she really did the right thing. Meanwhile, back in Alberta, her former beau, Colin, hears what he thinks is God’s voice asking him to give up his new medical practice and follow Cecile to the mission field. It would take a miracle for everything to fall into place in order for him to go.  Cecile needs a few miracles as well, since her clinic is about to be shut down. God is in the miracle business, however, especially at Christmas. With a touch of sweet romance running through it, Cecile’s Christmas Miracle by Ruth Snyder is primarily a story about trusting God.
