Ages 10+

Mary felt as if she was going nowhere, twenty-seven years old, working in a cotton mill and her will to be put to use for God didn't seem to be fulfilled. Mary prayed that God would send her anywhere and God would indeed answer the prayer of the fiery, red-haired woman from Scotland. 

For thirty-nine years, Mary Slessor would labor in love among the unreached, often treacherous, tribes of Africa's Calabar region. Braving sickness, danger and death on all sides, Mary became the cherished "White Ma" to entire tribes. Her faith, steadfastness, and pioneering spirit brought her beloved adopted people their first brilliant contrasting example of the life and freedom found in Jesus Christ.
