Following World War II, a
pioneer Australian pastor re-

labors in the Solomon Islands
A scene of ruin and devasta-

Of warfare, the mission stu
ton had been utterly destroy

sank within him Had all the
consecrated labor of the years
been in vain?
Then he went out through
the jungle into the villages,
where he talked with the
people. He found that the
faith, devotion, and courage
of the Christians were strong
or than ever they had been.
During the dark years of the
war. these faithful Christians
had continued to meet toget-
her for Bible study and pray

The missionary realized
that though the outward struc-

church lived on in the hearts
of the Christian people of the
Solomon Islands.
