Teodolinda and her family moved to the rough Zapotal highlands of Costa Rica to find a better life. But as the years passed, things got worse. Much worse. Life became a cycle of work, moon-shining, drunkenness, and fighting. Frightened, disgusted, and angry with herself and her family, Teodolinda wished desperately for change.
She hung religious symbols on the wall, lit candles to the saints, chanted prayers, and walked miles to visit a priest, all to no avail. She vowed to do better, but soon faltered. Nothing she did made a difference. The family just slid deeper into sin. Finally they were ready to take desperate measures.
Death of a Saloon is a remarkable story of a soul-sick family and a testimony of the great mercy and power of God and of the miraculous deliverance and a new life available through Jesus Christ.
