The Christian
Missionary Alliance work in

and, when they could paddle
no more, they went on by
foot. On their way they
established‘ church groups,
a medical clinic, a Bible
school and even a small
trading post. Eventually
their ministry of evangelism
and church planting ranged
over the entird country and
