Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Margaret Agard and her new husband Parker felt the call - Sell all that they had and follow in missonary work. Starting out in one of Parker's projects, a restored 1980 El Camino, Agard shares a compelling and often humorous account of the life of modern day servant/missionaries. From an inner city Hispanic church to the wilds of Alaska, Agard's account of missionary stories radiates warmly from her skillful depiction of the characters she befriended. Agard invokes people and life lessons that become a part of you from the Hispanic matriarch who shares food and off-beat insight (why it's smart to have a death quilt) to the native Alaskan culture where gray hair is a plus. Written with wry humor and engaging personality--taking on faith, love, family, and the elderly --In His Footsteps 3: Missions How I Sold All I Had and Followed As God Created Miracles and New Hearts is a moving memoir of spiritual growth, certain to delight anyone who has ever given up everything (or wanted to) to gain wisdom and a new heart. Margaret Agard is a mother, former missionary and an award-winning author whose book series, In His Footsteps shares the inspiring and quirky results of her fresh approach to prayer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book amazed me" Writers Digest judge With her trademark candor, wry wit, and warmth award-winning author Margaret Agard gives us a smart, funny and timeless memoir appealing to both skeptics and believers, alike. Already overwhelmed with her five-page long to-do list thanks to a new marriage, two sons facing the tumultuous teen years, and work as a computer consultant, she's asked to organize care for all the women of her church from the new young mothers to grieving widows. In desperation, she turns her list over to God each day asking, "What do I do?" Her life is quickly filled with experiences both touching and quirky from hospital visits to screaming peacocks culminating in her heart-felt changed relationship with God. Filled with captivating characters, familiar to anyone involved in community, down to earth spirituality, and sparkling stories of life with Parker and the boys. Agard brings both profound insight and self-deprecating humor to the simplest of life's moments. Each finely crafted piece illuminates the small and great events of a woman's life with strength and compassion while the whole creates a memorable experience, that lingers long after the memoir is finished. "An inspiring, easy read with laugh-out-loud moments" Kindle reviewer "Recommended for the OCD among us" Amazon review
Download or read book In the Footsteps of Columbus written by John O'Sullivan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Space Agency has a long history of human spaceflight, flying in space with both NASA and the Soviet/Russian space agencies over the years. This book tells the story of the ESA astronauts who have visited the International Space Station over its first decade and how they have lived on board, helped construct the space laboratory and performed valuable scientific experiments. ESA has contributed the Columbus science laboratory as well as the Copula, the Leonardo PMM and the ATV supply ship to the station’s infrastructure but it is the human endeavor that captures the imagination. From brief visits to six month expeditions, from spacewalking to commanding the Earth’s only outpost in space, ESA astronauts have played a vital role in the international project. Extensive use of color photographs from NASA and ESA depicting the experiments carried out, the phases of the ISS construction and the personal stories of the astronauts in space highlights the crucial European work on human spaceflight.

Download or read book In the Footsteps of the Yogi written by Ramcharandas and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2001-03-20 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grief comes into our lives like a thief. We are shocked, hurt, even bitter. The intensely personal experience may send us in a tailspin of emotions completely unexpected, always unwanted. The death of a child is perhaps one of the most grievous sorrows to bear. As an RN, I have attended many couples experiencing the death of their beloved child in the womb, or shortly after birth. I have witnessed, and shared the intense grief. We have a God who knows the number of hairs on our heads, calls the stars by name, and is aware of each sparrow that falls from the sky. This same God, is aware of each individual experience of grief and pain. God's compassion moved me to start a support group for grieving families, hoping to touch lives with His compassionate love. In this book you will find a compilation of scriptures, poems, notes, and quotes taken from the support group newsletter that I have written over the years. In times of grief, reading the words of others can help communicate the intense feelings of grief and loss and help us realize we are not alone.

Download or read book In the Footsteps of Spanish Colonialism in Morocco and Equatorial Guinea written by Yolanda Aixelà Cabré and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2018 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The failure to manage cultural diversity in Morocco and Equatorial Guinea in an egalitarian manner has been linked to the hallmark of colonialism. First, because the policy practiced upon Arabs and Moroccan Imazighen since the French colonization comprised one of the reasonings employed to justify the pro-Arab policies developed after independence. Second, because the discriminatory policy deployed by Spain in Equatorial Guinea, was overridden by the installation of a dictatorship that established a system of Fang predominance. This book clarifies the degree to which the Spanish colonization is responsible for the present-day management of cultural diversity in both countries.

Download or read book In the Footsteps of Sheep written by Debbie Zawinski and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the Footsteps of Sheep details the completion of a mission the author, a Welsh-born Scot, set for herself: to travel and camp throughout Scotland, find cast off tufts of wool from 10 Scottish sheep breeds, then spin the wool on her spinning stick while walking (or waiting for ferries), and finally design and knit one pair of socks to represent each breed ... all the while writing about her adventures and taking plenty of photographs. Debbie has written beautifully about her journey; the hills, shorelines, and bogs explored; the sheep and people she met along the way; weather both foul and fair, and a particularly exciting chapter about the intriguing St. Kilda archipelago and its feral Soay and Boreray sheep. The eleven sock patterns, one at the end of each chapter, are a bonus and, for those of us unable to gather and spin our own fleece, all were test-knitted with commercial wool. The designs are knitted from top to toe with different motifs, among them color-patterns, cables, spirals, stripes, Kilt Hose with top-turnovers, and a pair of baby booties."--Provided from Amazon.com.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three years, eleven countries, 1,200 families, 14,000 kilometers of adventures while walking in the footsteps of mankind through the Cradle of Life. Alexandre and Sonia Poussin undertake to walk the length of Africa entirely on foot, from the Cape of Good Hope to the Sea of Galilee. In a three-year trek along the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, their goal is to symbolically retrace the passage of early Man, from Australopithecus to Modern Man. Without sponsors, without support team, sharing the poverty of their hosts, they speak to us on each page of the generosity and enthusiasm of these men and women who populate the African continent. Day after day, Alexandre and Sonia become a bit more African themselves. In this volume, which recounts the first seven thousand kilometers up to Mount Kilimanjaro, we are privileged to share an intimate look into the heart of Africa and her people. The adventure continues in Africa Trek II.
Download or read book Chasing the Devil A Journey Through Sub Saharan Africa in the Footsteps of Graham Greene written by Tim Butcher and published by Atlas and Company. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The audacious, gripping travelogue of a writer chasing the ghost of Graham Greene into the heart of Africa. Of all the anarchic and war-torn African nations, none is more forbidding than Liberia, the land that nurtured child soldiers, the violent trade in "blood diamonds," even ritual murder. Graham Greene, in search of extreme adventure, ventured through its dense jungles to write the travel classic Journey Without Maps; three-quarters of a century later, Tim Butcher decided to follow Greene's footsteps, only to find the path even more ominous and overgrown than in his predecessor's day. Among the devils he encounters are masked sorcerers whose magical powers depend on cannibalism and missionaries long forgotten in the hinterland he traverses. Butcher, a former African correspondent for the London Telegraph and author of Blood River, his best-selling account of a dramatic journey through the Congo, has produced in this thrilling sequel a book that The Independent hails as "fascinating, harrowing, and eventful."
