"Jerry was a CICM (Congregation of the Immaculate Heart of Mary) brother, a medical doctor who chose to go and work among the Pygmies. I got to know him well during his novitiate in 1979-80. I knew then that he would be a great missionary with a good spiritual foundation. He wrote a letter to his mother every week. She, in turn, made copies and sent them to family and friends. The book is basically taken from these letters. It is very moving and touching. I hope many will read this book and, in this way, get a sense of the lives and work of so many missionaries. But Jerry was special as you will see when you read this book." – Father Bill Wyndaele
