Dayuma
"Dayuma's
Jungle" is based on the true story of 5 missionaries who were
killed by Auca Indians
in the jungles of Ecuador in 1956. Dayuma, an Auca girl, describes
how life in her jungle is
transformed through the message of God's love and forgiveness that
these men were trying
to bring. Forgiveness was clearly demonstrated by the missionary women
who stayed in
Ecuador after the tragedy of the men's deaths, to continue the task
the men started.
In recognition
of the sacrifice that these missionaries made to bring God's Word
to the Aucas,
Craigmore Christian
School has named its sport teams after three of the men:
ELLIOT SAINT FLEMING
Jim
Elliot, Nate Saint, and Pete Fleming.
Four of the stories
from Dr Paul White's "Jungle Doctor" series are featured
as bedtime stories
for the missionary children, providing an array of lively jungle animals
on stage. They learn some
important lessons for life, while adding colour to the spectacle and
spice to the music.
