作者简介:

Leila Cooke came from Colorado Springs, U.S.A., where her father was a physician and her mother, a woman greatly beloved. Early she learned to make the doing of God's will the supreme motive of her life.


With study at Los Angeles Bible Institute, she continued her musical education, becoming an accomplished pianist. But there was no piano in Lisuland. The long, long mountain trails over which she travelled into that country as a gospel messenger were hazardous enough without any but the most essential burdens. For Christ's sake Leila made her choice, but how many hundreds throughout the mountains and valleys of the Salween will join in heaven's music because she was willing for sacrifice.

 
Under the direction of J.O. Fraser, Alan and Leila Cooke laboured in the gospel among the Lisu Tribe. Long periods of separation from her two boys proved a trial to be cheerfully borne for His sake as all who knew her can testify.Hardship and loneliness only served to beautify that life yielded to God. She herself made frequent and distant itineraries for evangelistic work and many months were spent in translating the Scriptures into Lisu.


These labours, including the continuous care of many sick and needy, filled the large part of her twenty-five years of missionary career. In her final illness she was carried back from the village where she had gone to teach, and on May 7th, 1943, from a rudely constructed Lisu shack God's missionary heroine went in to see the King.


It is no wonder that many younger mission- aries declare that in Leila Cooke they see their “ideal missionary".


本书序言、目录及插图:


杨思慧(Allyn Cooke)及其夫人Leila R. Cooke是内地会派往云南的工作者,他们主要的禾场在傈僳族的当中,与他们同工的还有富能仁、杨宓贵灵,以及本地传道人等等。以上这本小书,是在Leila归天家后才出版的她个人的撰述著作,讲述她在傈僳族中的工作情况,比如探访、医治疾病、翻译傈僳文字的Bible等,是记录其亲身经历的一本小书。笔者觉得这本小书具有一定的价值,故而在此介绍一下!
