July 18. Jerry Moldenhauer. Jerry loved Jesus Christ, and he loved a young woman.

July 16. GR Kampfer. Kampfer was a man of mission. Like God sent Paul to the Macedonians, God sent Kampfer to Northern India to people who were “spirit worshippers sunk in the depravity of ignorance” and “driven back into the swamps and jungles.”  When he arrived—though the journey had been long and exhausting and his destination was shot through with evil—he said, “How glorious these trips […] The post GR Kampfer, US, Missionary first appeared on 365 Christian Men.

July 14. Dave Rudenis. Dave was a young deacon in a local church in Florida.

July 13. Stanley Dale.
