Lillian Trasher
Publisher's Summary
When Lillian Trasher (1887-1961) founded Egypt's first orphanage, others thought that a lone American woman with no means of support would surely be killed or starve to death. But Lillian - certain of God's guidance - stood by her earlier promise to Him, "If ever I can do anything for You, just let me know - and I'll do it."
In the midst of poverty, war, and deadly epidemics, Lillian faced each day with a heart of trust, modeling the life she hoped her children would someday live in their own homes. During fifty tumultuous years, the Mother of the Nile cared for thousands of desperate children, with unwavering faith that God does indeed look after the orphans.

The most touching book I've read in years
This biography gives the true definition of what it means to be a Christian, by a life long example. Full of faith, love, meaning and purpose. The way Jesus loved the little children and provided faithfully time and again touched my heart to overflowing! Another one to read is a bio of Mary Slessor.

As always, the Benges' outdid themselves!
The story of Lillian Trasher is out of this world, because God's ways are always above the norm. From start to finish, I was mesmerized. I googled her orphanage and it's still going on, what a legacy!
