Synopsis
A vivid, firsthand account of faith and endurance on the Labrador coast. Follow the author as he travels icy seas, trudges across snow with dog teams, and shares the gospel with scattered communities along a rugged 700-mile coast.
He chronicles months of arduous travel—from Red Bay to Mud Lake and beyond—through brutal cold, treacherous terrain, and unpredictable weather. Along the way, he forms rough-and-ready friendships, offers comfort to the dying, and reflects on the isolation and devotion required to serve in remote Labrador.
- Experience long journeys by komatik and dog team under some of the harshest winter conditions.
- See how ministers adapt, endure, and find moments of grace in small, remote settlements.
- Meet the people of the coast, from seasoned elders to eager young families, and witness their resilience.
- Read intimate vignettes of daily life, service, and the challenges of building a missionary presence in the field.
Ideal for readers of travel memoirs, religious history, and vivid, character-driven accounts of life in frontier Canada.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating account of a young Methodist missionary's experiences in Labrador, a desolate and inhospitable land in the early 1900s where he found himself alone among poor and needy half-breeds and Eskimos.

His vivid descriptions of the people, the landscape, and the challenges he faced bring to life the harsh realities of missionary life in this remote and unforgiving environment. Young's inspiring account provides valuable insights into the lives of the indigenous people and the challenges faced by missionaries working in isolated and inhospitable regions.
