The Girl Who Never Quit: the Life Story of a Determined Soul Frances Mcarthur Cummings

Frances M. Cummings' intimate autobiography, The Girl Who Never Quit, describes her humble beginnings in rural Robeson County, growing up as the fourteenth child on the farm and picking cotton at age four. You will meet a child far beyond her years who at five years of age in second grade was ready to meet the challenges head-on and be more than a conqueror. This book takes the reader through ten phases of her life from birth to sixty-three years of age. You will read what Frances says about herself and why she was determined to not be deterred from achieving her goals. You will share her experiences as a change agent-bringing about integration, marching on the African Embassy, surviving gunshots as a legislator-while being empowered to know there is wholeness and beauty in life after divorce. Frances has always been motivated to be a leader and made every attempt to manifest character, competence, composure, and courage in reaching her goals on life's pathway. It was not easy, she says, however, she "felt confident and secure in her belief and faith." The Girl Who Never Quit is an extraordinary testimony of the power of faith and determination to overcome life's insurmountable obstacles. Frances' life story affirms that Almighty God's grace sets us free and makes us whole in our walk with Him and in our heart.
