Mary Slessor

the long version

Can God use a simple, Scottish mill girl? The daughter of the drunken millworker, Mary Slessor wonders how God can possibly use her. But God is preparing her for more than she knows. With his power and a personality to match her fiery red hair, Mary stands up to African chiefs, adopts abandoned children, and slowly begins to change the hearts of the African people. Prayer and determination paves Mary's path to trusting God and becoming one of the most cherished missionary "mothers" in the history of Scotland and the world. - Back cover.
