My Life, My Faith, My Love is a memoir of
Dorothy Smith Gooden. It tells a very typical
Canadian story, about a little girl growing up in
the humblest of circumstances in western Canada
during the Depression and World War II. The
story moves back and forth from Saskatchewan to
British Columbia, following the footsteps of so
many others whose stories were similar. Dorothy
relates tales of family and faith as she and those
close to her struggle to find their niche in a fastgrowing
country. Along the way, there are many
historical nuggets, personal adventures and
glimpses of small towns from Leask to Langley. As
the story unfolds, the author also recounts her
impressions of her search for her own identity,
which is far from resolved, even today.
