Charles was the candidate secretary of HCJB and they interacted with missionaries who came through Miami on their way to the mission field. Many times she would call inviting us to a meal with missionaries we were eager to meet. After dinner we’d sit around the table and hear their stories: how a whole tribe had come to Jesus in one village or how God had provided for or protected another missionary family miraculously. We learned that these were folks wholly trusting Jesus; and proving He was faithful. Then promptly at 8:45 p.m., Mrs. Morgan would tell us how wonderful it was to have us in their home. Then she would pray. We left a little bit wiser.
