"You love righteousness and hate wickedness, therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy." (Psalm 45:7) "This is more than a book, this is a life. You will step back in time to an era that most of us never experienced, but you will be enriched as you see life through the eyes of a little girl suffering Great-Depression era hardships. As you read, not only will you get to know Cynthia better, but you will see and appreciate the ways of God in a new light. I am pleased to commend to you my sister and friend, Cynthia Cucinotta, and this delightful recollection of her profound life experiences." Bob Sorge, Author, oasishouse.com "When someone sees a person who radiates the joy of the Lord, one may ask, 'What are the ingredients to make such a vessel of honor?' With a life full of challenges, Cynthia answers the question by simply giving a very personal account of her life's journey. In her book, Vignettes From The Vine, she shares personal, heart-warming stories of how she has responded to the hand of God in her life, even when she was not aware. For her, these steps, both negative and positive, have given her insights into Godly principles by which each of us can gain a wealth of knowledge. In every vignette, she has summed up her experiences with some concrete 'life's lessons'. I am sure the reader will not only enjoy this account but will be able to identify with many of the same experiences." Rev. Paul Johansson, Chancellor Elim Bible Institute, Lima New York Founder, NY School of Urban Ministry
