A Rose in a Ditch
From an alley in Korea to the green hills of Bucks County, this is an Ameriasian girl’s story of Divine Care through poverty to life in America. Post-war South Korea was a lonely place for Goo Sooni, a mixed-race girl determined to survive poverty, starvation and discrimination and make her loving mother proud of her. Sooni became Julie.
Although her birth mother, Jung Song Ja, never lived to see the beautiful rose Julie became, two other mothers – Nobel Prize-winning author Pearl S. Buck and Jean Price – raised Julie to stand tall where God planted her. This amazing story of God’s endless love and grace, A Rose in a Ditch, is a memoir written by Julie Henning who was raised as Pearl Buck’s daughter.

In an amazing act of God’s providential leading, Julie’s book has found its way to a Christian film producer who made a film “short.” Our prayer is to make her story into a feature film for the masses, all the while, pointing all things back to our Savior and the love Christ has for each of us.
