Download or read book From Cotton Fields to Mission Fields written by Fred M. Allen and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-02-18 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a thirteen year old boy on an East Texas farm, Fred M. Allen read a book about explorer/missionary David Livingstone and was mesmerized. Many years later, he stood at the edge of the mighty Victoria Falls and gazed upon a statue of Livingstone. By then, Allen had spent a lifetime in service for the Lord. From Cotton Fields to Mission Fields reveals the experiences that led Allen to make it his mission to spread God’s Word, beginning with his boyhood in Texas and extending to his decades of work as a missionary in Zambia. Allen began writing his stories for family and friends but realized how much his words could inspire others, after being given a column in a weekly newspaper. Then his brother, Duane Allen of the musical group “The Oak Ridge Boys,” offered to share his stories on social media. Over and over, people asked, “Are these stories in a book?” In this inspiring Christian memoir, Allen looks back on his life, collecting those stories in one place. His experiences highlight the importance of faith, hard work, and walking the path that God intended.

Download or read book From the Cotton Fields to the Mission Fields written by Reverend Earlene Davis and published by Writers Republic LLC. This book was released on 2022-07-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a real story of how one black girl of many grew up in a segregated Mississippi town. It could have been in any of the Southern States, but hers was Mississippi, where cotton was the money-making commodity and where cotton was grown in the state for the White man by the Black sharecroppers. I write this story so that this generation may know how they got to where they are now. Some of them only get bits and pieces of their grandmothers and grandfathers' journey from the cotton fields, tobacco fields, beans, cabbages, or wherever field they were planted to the place where they are now. This is their story. Read it, talk about it with your family, and share it with your friends. Yes, there are going to be challenges and obstacles along your life journey; but don't stop, keep hope alive, pray and keep the faith, and never give up on your dreams.

Download or read book Ten Sisters written by Dew and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-08-31 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of the autobiographies composed by ten sisters. It is an inspirational story of a family with extraordinary parents who raised twenty-two children. After over a year of marriage, they became surrogate parents of seven children. They never complained, but did whatever it took to provide for the household. Ten daughters share unforgettable real life accounts of how the whole family handled calamity. Each unique story will share a different aspect of Gods faithfulness to His Word and to those who put their trust in Him. This book testifies that God will never leave us nor forsake us, and He is a present help in the time of trouble. It is a book to commemorate amazing parents who lived for a cause bigger than themselves and survived insurmountable challenges. Each chapter tells about a Mom who was audacious in facing oppositions because of her faith in an unfailing God. And above all, this book tells about a loving heavenly Father who is the foundation of the family; who spoke a Word over the lives of family members, and used earthly parents to train the children to carry out His plan. This story shows how God has been watching over His Word that was planted in the lives of individuals to perform it long after the parents are gone.
