Part of Do Great Things for God Summary: Extraordinary real-life story of missionary Amy Carmichael―an inspirational role model for children. Read the true story of Amy Carmichael, a missionary who shared Christ’s love with hundreds of women and children in Asia. At a time when being a single female missionary was extremely costly, Amy Carmichael spent her life sharing Christ’s love with hundreds of women and children in Asia. Along the way, she adapted to fit into cultures very different from her own, learned to depend on God in prayer, and became a mother to many children who had been sold, kidnapped, outcast, or abandoned. This beautifully illustrated children's biography of Amy Carmichael (1867-1951) features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos. It is part of a series designed to show kids that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Opening Lines: Amy Carmichael had brown eyes, though she wished they were blue. Show more
