The Romance of a Christmas Card


Read by Allyson Hester

(4.7 stars; 45 reviews)

The story of the mission of two Christmas cards written by a minister’s wife. These cards find their way to two straying sheep from the village fold, who hear through the message in the words, and the little scenes on the cards, the compelling voice of home. There was inspiration and good cheer in the cards, and from them came, in one case reformation, in the other romance. (Summary compiled by Maria Therese from various original 1915 reviews) (1 hr 44 min)

beautiful story

well written short story about the real love behind Christmas

Great short story


(5 stars)

A picture of a quaint, cosy old fashioned little town called Beulah, and the divine workings of two cards within - and without - it! Despite the short time constraints, I found the main characters well-developed. The reader read it beautifully with life and cheerfulness in her voice that seemed to embody Reba, the creator of the important Christmas cards. Would be great for an afternoon listen around Christmastime!

I hadn't known of this short story, till I ran across it here in Lrivox. The reader made it came alive. I wish I could hear more by her. I would have listened just to hear her expressive voice.

Lovely little holiday story. this is one of those stories that leaves me wishing for one more chapter, even though I know pretty much what would happen in it.

Not my favourite
