How quickly, if not recorded, our historical and spiritual heritage can be lost or forgotten while we take for granted the ease in which we live today. We read of great spiritual awakenings and revivals, but often know little of the early sacrifices and hardships our predecessors endured before these could come about. During the last half of the 20th century, the Lisu tribes, formerly belonging to the "unreached peoples" of our world, have been reached with the Pentecostal message. Today a great tribal church exists among them in southwest China and in upper Myanmar. This second edition of China Call takes you back into an earlier time when pioneer missionaries, Leonard and Ada Bolton, together with their stalwart co-workers, both national and missionary, faced incredible hardships, suffered bereavements, and traveled by primitive methods to evangelize and plant churches in Lisu tribal territory. It tells of their Call, their trust in the Lord, their joys, sorrows, discoveries, exciting adventures and victories. You will be moved by the dedication, devotion, and resolute bravery of ordinary people who listened to God. You will also watch with awe as "common clay," yielded to the Lord, is gradually molded by Him into something of exquisite spiritual beauty. And hopefully, you will realize that you, too, when yielded to Him, can change your world. -Robert & Evelyn Bolton
