Description: Mary Startton (born 1745 in Bristol) wrote an autobiographical account of her early worldly life, emotional struggles, and eventual religious conversion. After losing both parents young, she pursued pleasure and fashionable society but felt increasingly troubled about her salvation. Following a powerful spiritual awakening centered on Christ’s forgiveness, she joined the Moravian congregation in the 1780s and described finding lasting peace and spiritual purpose there.
