Description
One little woman with a big heart left her comfortable lifestyle in England in 1932 to become a missionary in China. She packed her bags by faith and trusted God to provide for all her needs. You will be amazed as you read about how she endured many hardships, trials, and sorrows during the years she spent in China. Your heart will be warmed as you read the many ways God took care of her and the people she came in contact with as she shared the Gospel and took children into her makeshift orphanage. The best part about this 153 page paperback book is that the story is told by Gladys Aylward herself. This is an amazing autobiography that I couldn't put down until I had read every last page of her remarkable life! She may have been a little woman, but Gladys definitely left a big legacy behind for us all to learn from! elise
Publisher's Description of Gladys Alyward: My Missionary Life in China
A solitary woman. A foreign country. An unknown language. An impossible dream? No!
With no mission board to support or guide her, and less than ten dollars in her pocket, Gladys Aylward left her home in England to answer God's call to take the message of the gospel to China. With the Sino-Japanese War waging around her, she struggled to bring the basics of life and the fullness of God to orphaned children. Time after time, God triumphed over impossible situations, and drew people to Himself. In Gladys Aylward: My Missionary Life in China, Gladys tells her story—a remarkable tale of one woman's determination to serve God at any cost.
A true story of a determined missionary, Gladys Aylward: My Missionary Life in China will challenge you to bold and expectant faith.
