Description
Amy Carmichael was known for her strong will and fiery determination from a young age, traits that would later drive her to serve as a missionary in India for over 55 years without ever returning home. Her journey was marked by challenges, including poor health, cultural opposition, and even legal threats. But Amy was undeterred. She dedicated her life to rescuing children from temple slavery and raising them in the knowledge of Christ. Her work at the Dohnavur Fellowship in India saved hundreds of children and left an indelible mark on missions. Drawing inspiration from verses like 1 Corinthians 3:12-13, Amy focused on building a life with "gold, silver, and precious stones"—a life of lasting value for God's glory. Discover how this "Wild Irish" woman followed God's call to "Go ye" into all the world and how her story can inspire us to offer our best to God, no matter the cost. Scripture Reading: I Corinthians 3:12-13; Mark 16:15
