Faithful: The Story of Dr. Charles Woodrow & Grace Missions Ministries

Charles Woodrow Faithful Mozambique

For nearly thirty years, Charles Woodrow has been serving as a missionary-doctor in Nampula, Mozambique. (All the while he has also served as a conference founder, church planter, theology teacher, bookstore owner, and much more.) For a good part of that time, my church has been supporting him.
