At 12:30 today the missionaries to Kenya from B.C. who were robbed, beaten, & the wife was raped are going to be interviewed on our local talk radio today on the Christy Clark show starting at 12:30 PDT!
We live in such a dangerous world however places like Kenya are very dangerous.
My sister was reading a book last time I was home called Lives given not taken...it is about some Baptist missionaries that were killed...an amazing book. By the way both of my sisters are Baptist!

Sis Alvear, I have great respect for you & your family!
You don't talk of sacrifice but you embody it in your life & your burden is clearly evident!
I think Missionaries are as close to being like Jesus as one can get!
At least being almost killed on the radio is not as graphic as being killed on TV!!!!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
I met her in Nairobi at our hotel, but he was still in the hospital at that time. When we got back to the hotel from the "bush", they were supposed to both be there, but we didn't run into them again. And Eddie wouldn't let me call their room, for fear they might be trying to rest! So I never saw them again. But I do get emails from their daughter all the time, who keeps me updated on what they're doing. And I have heard from him one time.
They are a wonderful couple with a truly forgiving spirit!
