Mary Slessor: Missionary Mother

The daughter of a drunken mill worker, Mary Slessor wondered how God can possibly use her. But God was preparing her for more than she knew. With His power and a personality to match her fiery red hair, Mary stands up to chiefs, adopts abandoned children, and slowly begins to change the hearts of the people she worked with. Prayer and determination pave Mary's path to trusting God and becoming one of the most cherished missionary "mothers" in the history of Scotland and the world. Ages 9-12. 176 pages, softcover.
