Author Sharon Jacobsen Black’s New Book, "Rescued by God," Reveals the Struggles Faced by the Author and Her Siblings in Foster Care Until Being Rescued via Adoption

Livonia, MI, May 28, 2024 --(PR.com)-- Sharon Jacobsen Black, who is of Native American, Hawaiian, and Portuguese ancestry, and has been a member of the Port Gamble ’Klallam Tribe since 1994, has completed her new book, “Rescued by God”: a poignant and stirring memoir that follows the author and her siblings as they transitioned into the foster system after being abandoned by their parents, enduring countless struggles and challenges until being adopted by a loving hope and being truly saved by the Lord.

Born in Seattle, author Sharon Jacobsen Black spent her early years in Seattle and in Butte, Montana, and has lived as an adult in Texas, Utah, and Michigan. The author has been a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints since the time of her adoption in 1960. Currently, she resides in Livonia, Michigan, but has lived in Michigan since 1987. She has worked as a licensed practical nurse and is the mother of six children, as well as a loving grandmother of twelve.

“Rescued by God” tells the true story of five children of mixed heritage deserted by their bio mother and bio father, who perhaps chased after their mother. This led to a transition home, a Montana foster home, and finally to their adoption in Utah.

Life in an abusive foster home led to Sharon’s prayer to a picture of Jesus for help. Dean and Alta Jacobsen requested a picture of the children they were considering for legal adoption. The child’s prayer was answered and confirmed by the Holy Ghost as they traveled from the Salt Lake City Airport to their new home in Genola, Utah, in a Willys car with their new parents and new blond sister.
