Quote from Mary Slessor

“If you are ever inclined to pray for a missionary, do it at once, wherever you are. Perhaps [he or] she may be in great peril at the moment. Once I had to deal with a crowd of warlike men in the compound, and I got strength to face them because I felt someone was praying for me just then.” – Mary Slessor –
