Book excerpt: William Ardill is a general surgeon who served as a medical missionary in Liberia from 1986-1990 during the beginning of the Liberian civil war and in Nigeria from 1992-2012. Journey On A Dusty Road is Ardill's memoir of the last 20 years of his medical missionary experiences in Nigeria. He chronicles the joys and hardships his family faced, the unraveling of the political situation largely due to religious and tribal conflict, and punctuates the narrative with interesting vignettes of patients treated at Evangel Hospital. He also shares the circumstances of the birth of the many different ministries they initiated to the street children, women with childbirth related injuries, women in crisis pregnancies, and families suffering with HIV/AIDS. He honestly discloses his personal and family struggles, the amazing deliverance of God in several life-threatening crises, and the worldwide support for their family over their twenty years serving with SIM in Nigeria. Written for those interested in medical missionary work, this very personal account is an exhaustive narrative of the spectrum of situations, good and bad, modern missionaries face. Journey On A Dusty Road is a testimony to God's grace and mercy and the support of hundreds worldwide who sustained them through their prayers, kindness, and gifts
