To the unseen and the unnoticed

In an age when missiological books focus on the great and the successful, I wish to focus on the many who labour on unseen and unnoticed, looking ever for that one lost lamb in the wilderness places of the world. 

Arthur and Mary-Ellen Lomax were such missionaries...serving silently but faithfully in areas outside the bright lights of the cities. They did not seek praise and are therefore almost forgotten...but not in the eyes of a saviour who lived and laboured in the backwater places in Galilee. 

If ever this research leads to a published work, I hope to dedicate it to those who will forever be unknown save for the books written and kept in heaven.
