Synopsis
Going off to the unknown of the Philippine Islands in 1958 was a very courageous move for Glenn and Shellie Boice and their two daughters, aged 12 and 5. In this book, Glenn, now 96 ½, describes the challenges he faced in finding a place for the family to live, developing effective working relationships with his Filipino colleagues, providing assistance to 150 local churches, and learning to fly, so that he could bring his ministry and much-needed humanitarian assistance to the isolated people who lived in the mountains. While Shellie taught her two daughters through correspondence courses and helped her husband in his work whenever possible, Glenn sought to understand how he could best address the spiritual and material needs of the people of the island of Negros. He and a Filipino colleague and pastor, Juan Pamplona, walked for many days (and sometimes nights) back to the mountains, crossing fast-moving streams infested with crocodiles; enduring leeches, mosquitos, and cold nights sleeping on hard surfaces in the nipa huts of the local population, while risking cholera and malaria. They preached in the little churches, baptized new converts in the streams and offered whatever assistance they could provide. The people responded with warm hospitality, welcoming them into their homes and providing what little they could for them to eat. When Glenn met Maning Maravilla, a layman who offered to fly him back to the mountains in his small plane, and later encouraged him to learn to fly himself, he was able to expand his ministry, allowing him to bring back medical supplies and even doctors and a dentist; fly out people who needed hospitalization; and transport food and clothing, provided by Church World Service, to those in the most need. Once, during a cholera epidemic, Glenn administered over 3,000 cholera vaccinations in the course of two weeks to people who came from all over the mountains to the remote mountain airstrips where he flew. From the beginning, one of Glenn's goals, which he accomplished during his time there, was to provide the isolated churches with "mountain workers" from the two-year Bible Institute course that he directed. He then worked closely with the workers to ensure that they received the support they needed to continue their ministry. The book also tells the family's story of adjustment to a foreign land and shows how their love for one another helped them overcome loneliness and other hardships to persevere and prosper.

Communication from the seller was prompt, polite, and helpful, with dispatch confirmed quickly. The parcel was securely packaged and arrived in excellent condition, ahead of the expected delivery date. Care was taken at every stage of the process. I would be happy to buy from this seller again—many thanks for a reliable and well-handled sale.FINLAND AND EUROPE: INTERNATIONAL CRISES IN THE PERIOD OF By Juhani Paasivirta (#335694307643)
- a***2 (13)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaItem was shipped quickly and packaged well. Item was exactly as described, brand new and it was even sealed. The seller also messaged me as soon as the purchase went through so communication was great. This was the last book in the series that I needed and to be able to find it in such great condition and at a great cost was unexpected. Highly recommend this seller and will definitely buy from again in the future.MARTIN THE WARRIOR (REDWALL) By Brian Jacques - Hardcover **BRAND NEW** (#187149385105)
- t***s (44)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe Item itself I rate five stars. The seller, however, I stop at four stars. The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
