Glover Shipp is a missionary with 18 years of experience in Brazil, as well as short periods in other countries of Latin America.  This is a fun book to read and a new way of telling the story of mission work.  The Pilgrims represent a typical missionary family, and brother Shipp leads them through all of the usual procedures, activities and problems that families experience both in preparing to go to the field and in working on the field itself.  All missionaries can relate to this story, and brethren everywhere will be able to empathize more than ever before with the missionary and his family.
