Includes bibliographical references (p. 207).
Surely, if Jesus could give up everything He had, Amy Carmichael could do no less. So in 1895 she embraced an unusual mission, one that would last the remaining fifty-six years of her life. The Dohnavur Fellowship would become, under her loving guidance, a place of sanctuary for more than one thousand children who would otherwise have faced a frightening future. Amy Carmichael's life was characterized by obedience, total commitment, and selflessness, and serves as an example to Christians today. Those the world regarded as less than lovely, Amy Carmichael saw with the eyes of God-- and gave her life for them. - Back cover.
