As
a teacher he established the first schools.
As
a pastor he established the first church in Moruland.
As
a missionary strategist he developed a network of
clinics, schools and churches that effectively ministered
to body, mind and spirit.
The
pioneer missionary work of the Frasers has proven
to be incredibly effective. Over 80% of the Moru people
are members of the church he established. And the
Moru Christians have proven to be incredibly tough
and tenacious. They have steadfastly resisted all
attempts by the Arab North to subjugate them. Despite
suffering some of the very worst persecution the resilient
Moru Christians are standing firm in the Faith –
an inspiration to Christians worldwide.
"The
Doctor Comes To Lui" contains over 100 pages,
including an introduction by Bishop Llewellyn Gwynne,
a preface by Bishop Bullen Dolli, a foreword from
Dr. Peter Hammond and 27 original photographs from
the 1920’s and 30’s – of the first
hospital, the first school, the first church, the
first converts, the first baptism. It really is a
unique book of beginnings in Southern Sudan.
"Any
story that illustrates the power of Jesus to change
people and the zeal if people who have changed is
worth reading. This book is one such story. Read
it and be challenged about your own commitment to
the Saviour."
Bishop
(Presiding) Frank J. Retief, Church of England in
South Africa.
"This
book should be read by everybody who is interested
in missions for it tells of the work that was founded
in Moruland by a doctor and which has been continued
ever since, with much persecution from the opposers
of the Gospel. May this excellent book be prospered
of the Lord and result in the deepening interest
amongst missionary minded believers in the Sudan.
I pray that it will inspire many more to give their
lives to pioneer missionary work in places where
the Name of Christ is not known. God bless its reading
to many."
Francis
Grim, President,
Healthcare
Christian Fellowship International
"This
little book is an inspiration to everyone who reads
it, as it relates the wonderful work of a dedicated
missionary on the battlefront of South Sudan. His
legacy continues to help the helpless, to teach
the unlearned, and to share the healing Gospel of
Jesus Christ under the most incredibly adverse conditions
imaginable. Read The Doctor Comes to Lui and pray
for Christians labouring in the holocaust of Sudan
as you read."
Dr.
D James Kennedy, Ph.D., Senior
Minister, Coral
Ridge Presbyterian Church.
This
uplifting and inspiring book is available from Frontline
