"Pioneers in Pith Helmets" by Martha E. Green


My good friend and mentor, Betty Sue Brewster, just showed me a copy of her mother's new book, Pioneers in Pith Helmets. Delicately laced through this story is Martha Greens' journey of joy from childhood to retirement. In the book you will read how Martha learned to trust her loving Lord to the point where she could say, "disappointments may be God's appointments for us," and "it was one of those unique happenstances that our Heavenly Father had planned for a purpose unknown to us."

In this delightful missionary journaling you will experience the high lights of Martha's 90 years including the reunion with her family, courtship with Steve, call to Venezuela, arrival of five chilren, and pioneer church planting. The journey is summed up by Martha's words, "love and joy, tears and praise mingled together in my heart."

This book is available through Lingua House for $11.50 plus $4 shipping and handling. e-mail: Telephone 626-500-6278

Hi. What a treasure your blog is - will be fun to read about all the places you have been. We have adopted Ryan and Kelly Shaw as our missionaries to pray for - Harmony Vineyard wants at least 2 or 3 families to pray daily for one of their missionaries and we're praying for the Shaws. We already get their e-mails. I want to get his book too - I didn't even know he had written one. Jill and Scott McCrae
