Glimpse of Their Greatness

Glimpse of Their Greatness is a compilation from First Wave, the author’s first book, leaving out all reference to her personal stories. The book highlights four Papua New Guinea teachers and their great love for the Faith, and the way each one broke the deeply ingrained beliefs and traditions regarding the superiority of the white race — they took great risks in so doing. The book is especially for their children, their children’s children, and ‘their line’.
