Stories from Indonesia to Peru these stories share adventures, trials, triumphs and even the failures of 21 different missionaries and how God touched their hearts and worked through them to help others.

The people of these stories will tell you that the ministries within are stories of God, not of their doing, but brought through them to glorify God in His works. They are only the messengers and workers for God Himself and they are thankful for the gift that has been bestowed upon them through the missions they have lived through. Even in the ugliest of situations, like coming face to face with the terrors of the jungles, God’s will always came shining through.
