Dr. James Foulkes' memoirs, To Africa with Love: A Bush Doc's Story, recounts his service as a medical missionary from 1958 through 1997. He, along with his family, joined forces with the people of Rhodesia [now known as Zambia] to provide medical care and the affirmation of God's abiding love as he faced the overwhelming disease, starvation, poverty and daily life in the African "bush." His story is written with poise and eloquence, giving a humble voice to the proud people of Africa who worked tirelessly with him to enhance their life quality. His story of faith shines brightly as it becomes evident that he receives as much as he gives through every experience that he and his family encounter.
To Africa with Love is an uplifting and extraordinary record of missionary service. It is what I refer to as a "sit up all night blurry eyed page turner!" Dr. Foulkes' story is a must read for anyone with interest in service to people in need. It is a true lesson in the discovery of God's blessings.
