Summary:
"When
Gordon
and Alma
DeLong
went to clear out their Aunt Annetta's house after her death, they discovered a cardboard box with letters in it. They recognized the handwriting as theirs and saw a collection of letters they had written to her and other family members. They brought it home and eventually gave it to their daughter, Elaine for safe keeping. This book is a loving transcription of those letters, found simply by accident."--Back cover.
"
Gordon
and Alma
DeLong
served in India from 1945 to 1968 as evangelical missionaries for the Canadian Baptist Overseas Mission Board. They were two of several Canadian Baptist missionaries who served in the state of Andhra Pradesh following the Second World War and after India declared independence from British colonial rule."--p.ix.
