00125-9-2.jpg (27010 bytes) In Botswana, Josh Daffern felt the joy of "seeing someone's eyes light up when they hear the name of Christ for the first time," and the heartache of "knowing that thousands die weekly without knowing Christ, simply because there aren't enough Christians around to tell them."

"As a direct result of God's working in my life through college missions experiences," says Josh I went on to serve in Botswana, Africa, as a journeyman."
