On the Season 6 premiere of When Calls the Heart on Hallmark, “The Greatest Christmas Blessing” (airing Christmas Day), while Elizabeth (Erin Krakow) is preparing to give birth, a group of orphans is stranded in Hope Valley for the holidays. Abigail (Lori Loughlin) and the other residents come together to make it an unforgettable Christmas for the children. The orphans’ beautiful young caretakers, sisters Lillian and Grace (Jocelyn Hudon, The Strain) are appreciative of the hospitality. (Note to Hearties: Both Lillian and Grace will star in the When Calls the Heart spin-off, When Hope Calls, in 2019.)
