From the Author
I am extremely grateful to God for the privilege of working with Don and Lynn
Hoyt, Wilma Riddell, and Donna Robinson to compile this awesome chronicle of
God's faithfulness in the lives of a group of missionaries He called to serve
Him in northeastern Zimbabwe over the past 60 years. We laughed and cried and
worshipped God as we read through the many experiences these people so
generously and candidly shared for this project.
I'll never forget the day I sat down to ponder the structural format of the book
and felt like God virtually dictated the Table of Contents to me. As the chapter
titles flowed without hesitation onto the computer screen before me, I saw more
clearly than ever how God's hand was behind every aspect of missionary endeavor
from the mundane to the spectacular, from the time He prepared and called these
ordinary people to the time He indicated their work was done. Yes, there were
human frailties, mistakes, disappointments, and failures, but none of these
could stop the power of God from building His Church in northeastern Zimbabwe
through their obedient service.
As
you read this book, I pray that the Spirit of God will anoint and open your eyes
to see Himself--and missions--in a new way and that you will join in the grand
chorus of praise for His awesome power and total sufficiency in the lives of
those He calls into service in His kingdom, wherever that may be.
