ZIMBABWE, TONGOGARA REFUGEE CAMP
For thousands of refugees our clinic was their only source of medical help.
They were grateful.

PHILIPPINES, VOLCANO MT. PINATUBO
They call her "Tina" because she reminds them of American rock star Tina Turner. Sad, they knew more about Tina than they did about the Gospel.
The Aeta tribe of pygmies lived on the slopes of Mt. Pinatubo. When it erupted it blew away their homes, their livelihood, and their ancesters' graves. Their ancestors' graves were their link to the supernatural. The volcano blew away their religeous underpinnings.
Many Aetas accepted Christ as our team brought clean water and food--and the Gospel--to their refugee camps.

Hope's name is Jesus.

EL SALVADOR
My late brother Don on a mountsinside overlooking San Salvador, El Salvador.
"Uncle Don" as children called him, worked for me setting up water purification projects in Asia, Central America and Africa.
Don is the one who told me we had to "Listen to the eyes of the children."

DUSK IN THE AFRICAN BUSH
Where I love to be.
I was watching as about a hundred yards away a group of lions were stalking a young giraffe.
Mama giraffe intervened and the lions gave up the quest.
Lions fear the long, lethal legs of the giraffe.

HANOI, VIETNAM
TALK ABOUT NAME DROPPING...
I'm showing this photo of me with Presidential Candidate Bob Dole
to a Hanoi government official.
It worked.
This man welcomed Children's Cup's work in Vietnam.
He and his colleagues all knew I was a follower of Jesus and that Children's Cup was faith-based.
They also knew I didn't sneak around and that I always obeyed their country's laws.
Now, about a decade later, they still welcome us.
