A Place in His Heart (2014)
“The forty-mile journey across the sound from Connecticut, around the upper point of the Long Island northeast fork, and into the bay seemed uncomplicated and almost pleasant compared to their voyage across the ocean. The men lowered the shallop, and each man, woman, and child climbed over the side into the boat. Only a few of their provisions were lowered down to them.
“Barney, what about Northstar?”
“Once I have you and the boys safely ashore, I will come back to bring him in. But ther...e’s time enough to bring everything else.”
The shallop rocked as everyone settled and the women and children huddled to protect each other from the blast of an early winter’s wind.
After a prayer of thanksgiving and praise, the thirteen men sat backward in the shallop and slowly rowed toward land. The distance between them and the shore seemed small, but the water was icy, the wind cold.
