Book excerpt: Precious Memories of Missionaries of Color, Vol. 2 profiles ninety-five black Seventh-day Adventist missionaries from 1892 to 2014 and is a follow up to Carol Hammond's book Precious Memories of Missionaries of Color, which was published in 2008 and featured the profiles of forty-nine families.

Download or read book Trickle Down Memory written by Susan Gregory and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord showed George Harris and Susan Gregory that nothing is impossible with God. In this memoir, Susan Gregory shares the details of her family's journey serving the Lord through missionary work. In 1956, Harris-an aeronautical and mechanical engineer-left a successful government job to become a missionary. With his wife, Susan, and their three children in tow, they embarked on a seventeen-day boat journey to their first destination in Mato Grosso, Brazil, with the South American Indian Mission. During their years abroad, Harris and Susan added two children to their family while experiencing Indian fights, an appendicitis attack, epidemics, chronic disease, serious accidents, and AIDS. Harris earned a reputation as a "fixer" and used these skills as a missionary not only in Brazil, but in the Bahamas; Mexico; Miami, Florida; and El Paso, Texas. Communicated through a series of letters written during their service, Trickle-Down Memory narrates one family's commitment to serving others. It shows a vivid legacy of lives lived for God and underscores the notion that missionaries are called, while their children are drafted.

Download or read book The Missionaries written by Norman Lewis and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2013-07-30 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renowned travel writer delivers “a scathing account of how some missionary sects deal with indigenous peoples in their bid for the conquest of souls” (Library Journal). Acclaimed travel essayist Norman Lewis spent his life traversing the globe and offering thoughtful commentary on the cultures he visited. In The Missionaries, he turns his critical lens on those missionaries who embed themselves in indigenous cultures to convert the locals to Christianity. What begins with the well-meaning goal of improving the lives of native people, though, often has the opposite effect. Focusing mainly on tribes in South America, but also in Indochina and the Pacific Islands, Lewis demonstrates how various missionary organizations betray their originating principals and—whether knowingly or not—contribute to the destruction of entire cultures on a scale equivalent to that of genocide.

Download or read book On Missionary Roads written by Jozef Tomko and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Botswana to Thailand, from Peru to Bosnia, the missionary work of the Catholic Church stretches from pole to pole, encompassing every part of the globe. Jozef Cardinal Tomko, the Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples from 1985 to 2001 under the late Pope John Paul II, shares his account of the many missionary journeys he made around the world. Often accompanying the Pope, Cardinal Tomko saw firsthand how the Church is dealing with the particular challenges of various cultures around the world. He gives witness to the flowering of faith as well as the hardships that many Catholics face in other countries. The encyclopedic knowledge of countries and peoples that the Cardinal possesses will enrich the reader's understanding of the world today, and show that the Roman Catholic Church is truly "one, holy, catholic, and apostolic." "Cardinal Tomko has given us a gift in this book that can help us appreciate the Church's response today to the mission given her by Christ two thousand years ago. He deserves our gratitude too for what he has done for the missionary well being of the Church over the years that he was Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. This book is an invitation to share in his generous missionary spirit and, like him, to do great things for the Lord." -Francis Cardinal George, OMI, Archbishop of Chicago Lavishly Illustrated with color photographs
