Heroes for Young Readers: Amy Carmichael: Rescuing the Children

When Amy Carmichael (1867Ð1951) was a young girl in Northern Ireland, an encounter with a poor girl her age made her vow to help others when she grew up. That's just what she did. Amy's legacy of rescuing hundreds of women and children, first in Irish slums and then in India, is a stunning reminder of the impact of one person who will fear God and nothing else can have.
