Darlene Deibler Rose

Darlene Deibler Rose was a born-again Christian missionary in Papua New Guinea during and after World War II in what would later be the Western Highlands province. Darlene Deibler was the first American woman to enter the Baliem Valley of New Guinea, working there with her first husband Rev. Russell C. Deibler. When WWII broke out, the Deiblers were sent to separate prison camps. Russell died at Pare Pare, but Darlene survived four years in a camp for women at Kampili, where she developed beriberi. She claims her Christian faith sustained her during those years.

After the war Darlene married Jerry Rose and resumed missionary work in New Guinea. After nearly thirty years in New Guinea, they relocated to the Australian outback. She died on February 24, 2004.

A story of astounding faith

Many missionaries go overseas with an idea of what things might look like and what sacrifices they’ll be called to make. Darlene packed her bags and set sail for her mission field, expecting the many trials that would come with going to an unreached people group in the middle of the jungle. She didn’t expect a world war to call her to an utterly new level of sacrifice and service, but that’s exactly what happened. Darlene learned to be faithful in some of the worst conditions possible when the Japanese invaded her mission field and she was put in a prisoner of war camp. Your faith will be strengthened and you will be moved to tears as you see how God kept this woman and gave her a glorious witness for Jesus in circumstances that few of us could imagine!

I do work for 10ofThose, but this is my honest review of this book!
