#126 – Ellen Mitchell, Medical Missionary, with Abigail Medford (Part 2)

***Listen to Episode #125 FIRST for Part 1!***

While many have heard of the famous missionaries Adoniram and Ann Judson (in fact, we just had two episodes on them), few know the names of those who came to Burma after them to continue what is arguably one of the greatest Baptist mission works of all time. The missionaries who followed gave just as much of themselves to ensure the Gospel was heard by every Burman possible.

In this episode, Tracie and Abigail discuss the untimely ministry of Ellen Mitchell, an unassuming woman who failed to follow societal expectations, but instead gave her latter years to one of the highest callings: missions on the foreign field! While she spent her "sunset" years working on a foreign missionfield, and many of her dreams for the ministry were never realized in her lifetime, her investment came to an unlikely fulfillment years after her earthly life ended. This episode is an excellent reminder that our work for God has no end when we trust God with our investment in the cause of Christ.
