A missionary gives her testimony to attendees at the Sending Celebration, held in conjunction with the Florida Baptist Convention annual meeting. She is obscured from the crowd by a partition because she is called to a people group that may be hostile toward the gospel.

In her country of service, she will generally be known by her real name or maybe by a nickname given to her by local friends. IMB Photo
