About This Book
Homer Smith is hired by East German nuns to first help build a chapel. A school then other buildings are constructed. Smith, or “Schmidt” as he is called by the nuns, is an angel sent by God. Mother Maria conducts tours of the buildings. There is a painting of a saint who has a remarkable resemblance to "Homer Schmidt" on the wall of the chapel. Mother Maria remarks that Schmidt is “a man of great faith, of great devotion."
