A New York Times bestselling memoir, this inspiring true story follows eighteen-year-old Katie Davis Majors as she leaves her comfortable life in Nashville to become the adoptive mother of thirteen girls in Uganda.
At the height of her senior year—class president, homecoming queen, and college-bound—Katie Davis felt called to something radically different. During a Christmas mission trip to Uganda, her heart was transformed by the poverty and spiritual hunger she witnessed. What began as a short-term visit became a lifelong commitment.
Defying expectations and giving up her plans for college, relationships, and familiarity, Katie returned to Uganda to serve. Over time, she adopted thirteen daughters and founded Amazima Ministries, an organization that provides education, food, and discipleship to hundreds of children. Through faith, perseverance, and an unwavering belief in God’s calling, Katie built a family and a ministry from the ground up.
With honesty and heartfelt storytelling, this memoir chronicles Katie’s journey of obedience, sacrifice, and radical love as she learns to trust Jesus in the face of impossible circumstances. Kisses from Katie challenges you to live boldly, love generously, and follow God wherever He leads.
