Our last missionaries?: Flanders sent out its sons and daughters

11,99 22,00

Nineteen Flemish missionaries and missionary sisters tell how and why they spent an important part of their lives in the farthest corners of foreign continents: from Congo to El Salvador, from Brazil to Mongolia.
They do not grace encyclopedias and rarely appear on television. They live in sweltering heat and crushing cold. They move dozens of times, from village to village, from continent to continent.
This book reads like a world trip, with stories about the past, when missionaries were still queuing to leave for the mission as soon as possible. But also with stories from today: women and men still travel to some distant country, to work there their whole lives on 'peace and justice', together with the people from there, usually the poorest on the fringes of society.
