| Summary: | This is the absorbing story of an Egyptian village which changed its way of life. In connection with a literacy campaign in the village came new hope, new ideas, and a new unity to carry these hopes and ideas into practice. The story is moving and simple, but its lessons are profound. Here was no mission- or government-engineered program of change forced upon a community, although a mission-sponsored literacy campaign was the spark which set the development off. Here was change coming from within, catalyzed by ideas from without. The most fundamental change was a spirit of love and harmony. |
