Gisela Yohannan

Dear Sister, : Letters of Hope and Encouragement is a compilation of letters that author Gisela Yohannan wrote over a period of seven years, and they truly do offer hope and encouragement. She wrote these letters to the wives of pastors and missionaries, as a way to share her experiences, and the lessons she had learned, in her work with Gospel for Asia. Her letters were written from February, 1999 until June, 2005, and each one is a treasure trove of scripture and personal reflection. Now, show more as I read them, I can only imagine how vital and important they were to the recipients. I marvel at Yohannan's candor and her devout faith, and I myself am uplifted and strengthened by her beautiful words. Some letters are twenty years old, but they are proof of the mighty power of the written word, and the unlimited power of faith!

This inspiring book is a perfect supplement to your devotion time. I recommend Dear Sister, : Letters of Hope and Encouragement to all who enjoy personal journals and Christian devotionals.
