The
second edition of this volume has incorporated some more details about the
persons whose life stories are presented. This book exposes a pending debt to
fill an existing gap in the historic area. That debt continues to be to
recognize the fervour and enthusiasm to communicate the Gospel that guided many
women. These women dedicated their lives in a self-sacrificing and laborious
way to contribute to establish and strengthen the spreading of the Adventists
beliefs in the countries that make up the present South American Division of
the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
This
work recounts the story of some of those women. All of them have been women of
faith, with their struggles and heartaches, but also with hope and victories in
Christ. Their lives, their dedication and their leadership inspired in others
an intense longing to be sons and daughters of God. Their passion for doing
good and honouring God gave fruits that today leave us indebted to them.
It is
the author’s desire that this book doesn’t just fill a historic void, but that
it motivates and inspires the development of all the potential of the woman
filled with the Spirit of God that she may reflect His grace and mercy towards
human beings.
