All my life I have never forgot that great sacrifice from those people to get the knowledge of what they judged truth to a wild cannibal Indian tribe along the River of Death...


I stood in a leper colny at the priest's home...he had spent all his life in the city of the living dead taking Rome to the people...I wept as he handed me a peice of communion bread...I had not walked to his house to take communion..but happened to walk in as they were taking it...

He had grown old among the lepers preaching his version of Jesus....

I just wonder why we that claim truth are always so slow to reach the lost...We condemn others but many times their LOVE far surpasses ours to a cause that we claim we love above all others...

Weep my friends....weep....

Rejoice my friends rejoice that the Bible is being translated....
Wow! This made me cry.
