Memories…. my sister Amanda (Mandy) Reimer among many others, fled from Congo in 1960 when independence came in. According to your story in Servant I assume you must have been a small boy when Mandy was with Congo Inland Mission, delivering lots of babies etc A couple of years ago I gave her letters to a nurse in Calvary Place in Winnipeg, the nursing home where Many lived until her passing in 2008. Unfortunately, the nurse and Mandy\s letters have vanished and I have not been able to track them down. And now I am beginning to ramble…buit your story got me going and I am so glad that root of bitterness gave way to new hope and purpose. God’s richest blessings on you and your family.
