| She is a very young girl completely aloneand on her own in Judson, a patheticghost town in the middle of the West Texasdesert. She is a redhead of titanic propor-tions, filled with one mission: to bring thelove of Jesus Christ Our Savior Amen toall the children of the world. Her onlyweapons are a wooden cross (with cutnotches for each saved soul), an em-bossed Bible (kept snowy white with shoepolish) and the sayings of Corinda Cassy(founder of the Invincible Traveling Vaca-tion Bible School Instructor program andof Cowgirls for Christ, a band of homelessteenagers marching in formation andchanting hymns). She is deeply in love--but doesn t know it--with a lapsed man-of-the-cloth whose only real friend is anoisy rooster and who has a burning yenfor coloring books. She is faced with the urgent need for baptism in a drought area (which she instantly solves with pre- moistened towelettes)...she is ashamed of the touched--up apparition of Jesus on a screen door (Judson s sole means of sup- port)...she becomes, through a vision, the most popular and miraculous faith healer of all time, whose love for God overwhelms and annihilates everything remaining in her short life. She is Principia Martindale. |
