SAN ANTÔNIO, Tex. (BNC) — Former missionary to Brazil Barry Newton published an article today in his Forthright Magazine column, “Hands-on Faith,” about his mother, E. Jeannette Newton, who passed away on Monday.

Barry begins with an amazing summary:

Some of the milestones strewn throughout her life included the beginnings of the Herald of Truth, an Exodus movement, a school teacher, a preacher’s wife, a new wife adopting two kids from Brooklyn and having two of her own, a missionary, as well as a Bible school curriculum developer.

Barry and his wife Sofia worked with a mission team to establish the church in the city of Florianópolis, in southern Brazil.

He was the first columnist for Forthright Magazine, beginning in 1996, continuing to write until today.

His entire article can be read at this link.
