What if you grew up, never knowing who Jesus was?

Even in poor places they have religion.

Well I think thats what we have missionary's for, they go out and tell others about Jesus. In places where we would never go, in the poorest of countries, they leave their families behind to do what God has called them to do, he wants everyone to know who he is. My mother-in-law is a missionary in South Africa, she's been there for 8yrs. now, she said the place she lives is now the 3rd poorest country in the world, they don't have anything. The only hope they have to hold onto is the fact that they are learning about who Jesus is, because of people like my mother in law, who left her family here in the U.S. to do what God has called her to do, even tho we would like to see her more often or hear from her more often, we know she is where she wants to be. She has such a tremendous love for those people, and we believe she will never come home to live here, she will live the rest of her days there in Africa, she's already 70 yrs.old. I think I may have gotten off track, but thats what I was meaning to say, is thats why we have missionary's, to go to those underpriviledged countries.
