This is an adventurous life story of obedience to God's call on her life. She touched the lives of children for good, wherever she found them, both in Africa and the USA. Rowena danced through the 'Pearly Gates' after leading 20,311 kids to a first time decision for Jesus. Faced with Muscular Dystrophy, she triumphed over every obstacle, both physical and spiritual, and challenged others to follow her example. Her busy speaking schedule continued up to the very last month of her life. She was a second generation kid born in South Africa of a Norwegian grandfather and an English 1820 Settler grandmother, whose forebear was Mayor of London, Sir John Bath Staples. She had grit and determination to do what she felt was right with her life, and trained as a Registered Nurse and Midwife. After her marriage she enrolled with her husband in the South African Bible Institute, and received ordination in September 1978. Faced with the slow onset of Muscular Dystrophy, she never wavered in her calling, and impacted thousands of lives on two continents before finally ending her full life journey so triumphantly that the doctor attending her was moved to ask for the reason of the hope that she had for eternity. This book contains many of her own written accounts, transcribed from her papers after her decease in December 2007.… (altro)

Really a wonderful book about a missionary couple. This is more than just the story of Rowena Cole-Rous and her mission to win the lost for Christ. This is the story of a couple, Jim AND Rowena. This book, written in conjuction with Rowena's eightieth birthday, draws from Jim's memories as well as from material gathered from Rowena's own private papers. It's a partnership, just like their marriage. ( )
