Just one year. That was all the Foundation Dr. John Wesley Blackstone III (Dr. Juan) asked from a few doctors. He had set up four clinics in Venezuela, but he could no longer run them alone. Dr. Rebecca Stanford stuffed the letter of invitation into her pocket, until a young nurse trainee who had grown up as a "missionary kid" in Venezuela convinced her to volunteer. "The year everything in the desert turns green" was a common Venezuelan expression that was eventually shortened to simply "The Green Year" (El Ano Verde). Rebecca soon learned to live her life by that philosophy. With Rebecca fighting the arrogance of Dr. Juan and mistreating missionary Kyle Parr, who seemed to show up exactly when he was needed, the year passed too fast. She longed to stay in the land she had grown to love, but was she willing to accept God's answer for her? And would Dr. Juan possibly yield to the God both Rebecca and Kyle loved and served? Would he allow God to answer their prayers for him?
