Description
Summary:"In 1952 Paul and Marjorie Rowden and their two young daughters traveled from Atlanta, Georgia, to Israel to work with the Baptist Convention in Israel. They lived in both Arab and Jewish communities. In this book Rebecca Rowden publishes the letters of her parents--letters that describe everyday life and adjustment to a new culture in the land of the Bible. The book contains historical information regarding how Baptists came to be in Palestine/Israel beginning in 1911 and how the land and its people, subjected to ever changing political and religious storms, shaped the lives of American Protestant Christians living in Palestine/Israel during the first sixty years of the twentieth century."--Page 4 of cover
