Description
Summary:	Four Christian women work and live in a Muslim and patriarchal world. The 'Sisters of the Consolata Missionaries' are building a new library in Empada, a small village in the south of Guinea-Bissau, West Africa. They went there solely because they wanted to give their lives to those who had never met Christ. Their mission is to take their own faith to other people - five hundred years after the first Portuguese missionaries arrived in Africa.
