Sought After
Author:Sarah LambrechtISBN:1-4134-6761-X Format:Paper, 70 pages Price:$25.00 Product Description:
Several years ago Sarah Lambrecht, then a Wheaton College student, spent a semester among the poorest of the poor, the children of the Guatemala City dump. Yes, you read that correctly, the dump-the place we avoid because of its smells, its infections, its rodents, its ugliness. These are her touching and challenging reflections of that time. I will submit a warning: Do not read Sought After if you are unwilling to face the realities of life for these living, breathing children and their parents. Be prepared to evaluate your own priorities and to vicariously experience their lives. It is worthy reading for individuals, for missions committees, for youth groups for UMW circles. We may offer lip service to the issues of poverty and injustice. Our church leaders may focus on the rights of Guantanamo Bay prisoners. yet Sarah shows u the children so easily forgotton by everyone but God and the people he has called to minister to them.
