DAVID LIVINGSTONE – Couregeous Explorer

As people flocked to David with
infections he could treat,
he asked his guide to translate and
encourage them to speak
about their customs and beliefs
so he could learn their ways.
And while he learned, he helped heal many
in the coming days.

Fascinated by the world outside his dreary Scottish mill town, young boy David Livingstone (1813-1873) read every science book he could find and dreamed of exploring unknown lands. When he grew up, he followed his dreams, becoming a missionary doctor in faraway Africa. There he ventured bravely into places no other white man had been, healing people’s bodies with his medical skills and reaching their hearts with the gospel of Christ.
