DTS student finds the meaning of her name... and more!
In October 2010, Peter and Jan* traveled to Indonesia for a trip to visit, pray with and encourage missionaries working in an unreached part of Indonesia.
On their last night, their host Jim* invited them to share a meal and a message with the workers and students on the Discipleship Training School (DTS).
Jan felt strongly led to talk about her parents, Elizabeth and Philip Jones*, who had spent many years serving in parts of Indonesia and The Philippines. At one point in their ministry, the Joneses had traveled from their base in the Philippines to neighboring Indonesian islands in a boat they christened “Cynthia Joyce,” after Jan’s younger sister.
What follows is a testimony from that night, a remarkable encounter with a DTS student thousands of miles from her home in eastern Indonesia whose life had been touched by Jan’s family years before.
