Making Disciples

Another letter came from the Abbots today. They recalled the events of a "typical" day in Cameroon when they transported two ill children to a nearby hospital. I thought of many things as I read their letter. The nurse in me wanted to ask more questions about the children's symptoms and wondered if the illness was preventable. The missionary in me pondered the lack of resources. The Christian in me was proud that Barry and Desma took the time to use this situation as an opportunity to pray with the Baka. The overwhelming thought, however, was the desire to be in Cameroon, caring for the medical needs of the Baka with the goal of making disciples.
