The doctors confirmed she fractured her left femur. This unfortunate incident necessitated her stay at the hospital for surgery, followed by a few more weeks at a rehab facility.  All this left her bedridden in her home for more than two years. Her family then arranged for caregivers to assist her daily. It was at this time she was introduced to Shay Harvey.

During this time, Carolyn began questioning why she had to be couped up in the house, not being able to go out and share God’s love with others. “Lord, why am I here in bed? I can’t walk,” she prayed. “You can’t walk, but you can talk,’ was the response that came back to her mind.

It was then she recalled noticing an advertisement for Amazing Facts Bible Studies, and with her new caregiver’s help, they sent in and requested two sets. One for her and one for Shay. They both went through all the lessons and received their certificate of completion. Carolyn realized this remarkable story would not have been told if she had not been homebound.

Sis. Carolyn Palmer

Shay remembers when Carolyn asked her to do the lessons with her. She said she enjoyed taking the Amazing Facts teaching with Mrs. Carolyn Palmer.  The teachings were enlightening, and studying with Sis. Palmer was exciting. “I was so impressed with what I was learning; I could help but to share it with others.”
