| Yemen:
They followed
God’s purpose
Quotables
Friends and family in the United States gathered this week
for memorial services for three hospital workers killed Dec.
30 in Yemen. All three exemplified the theme for the 2003
International Missions Emphasis—That all peoples may
know Him: Follow God’s purpose.
Martha Myers
“Only those who saw her take a sick Arab child in
her arms could understand what a servant is. Each day she
lived there, ... she died to self.”—Jerry
Rankin, International Mission Board president

Bill Koehn
“Bill was not in Yemen because an agency sent him,
not because a convention encouraged him to go, not because
of the Cooperative Program and not because his family encouraged
him to go. He was there because a sovereign God looked across
the sea and had compassion on the people of Yemen. God chose
someone to stand in the gap. He chose a former grocery worker
from Kansas.”—Scott Whitson, pastor of Cross
Timbers Baptist Church and a childhood friend to Koehn’s
daughters

Kathy Gariety
“She certainly pointed people to Jesus and radiated
His love. She did what she talked about and risked her life.
She trusted the Lord and put her life in His hands. I’m
looking forward to the day when we will see her again.”—Doris
Moorman, one of Gariety’s friends in her home church
