TRANSACTIONS _ BASEBALL THE TRUCK SALE GETS EVEN BETTER | % FINANCING _ MUNDAY'S RECOVERY SLOW Once more I must interrupt the heritage society series of columns entitled What is Dream Worth in or- der to bring my readers up (o date on the continuing saga of former Castlegar teacher, missionary atid friend to many, John Munday As you will recall John had returned from Quito in Equador to British Columbia a year ago in the desperate hope of getting corrective surgery for his failing heart, sight and hearing. A shy, nervous, and not particularly strong man, with an engaging sense of humor, he had taught French at Stanley Humphries secondary school for several years in the mid-1950s and had made many lasting friends among his pupils and in the community. Several years later after returning to his home in Victoria he had gone t th America as a missionary- teacher, Here he met and overcame many of the things and situations that he had so fearfully an ied on leaving such as snakes, headhunters (with thé hair still on) revolution and a variety of strange foods — monkey roasted on an open fire — for example (see Over My Shoulder — A Man With A Mission). Quite by accident 31 years ago he be! abandoned boys and gave them a home in his small apartment in Lima. From this small beginning there evolved in Quito, Equador, the extensive complex of orphanage, farm, church, correspondence school and museum called Diospaj Nan (God's Way). It now shelters at least 46 children, many of whom are severely handicapped, and most of whom attend school and go on to be valued citizens, and a support staff. The stress of building and operating the shelter has seriously overburdened his none-too-strong con- on. Over the years several operations have failed his damaged heart, sight and hearing. ver, the only partial success of his recent open- heart surgery (two of the four by-passes closed again), the realization that his sight and hearing could not be corrected, together with the separation from his beloved **family”* and all that he holds dear, have taken further toll. Despite the greatest possible care at the home of his sister and bro’ -law in Victoria, his convalescence was slow and plagued by bouts of severe depression. He returned to Quito in late June, still very unwell. A letter, just arrived last week and headed: J. Munday, c/o Mr. G. Reinking,6923 East Harvard Ave., Denver, Colorado, U.S.A., 80224, tells the tale. It reads in part: Dear Jack and Bunny Even though I've been terribly re-miss about writing you, you have been so frequently in my thoughts. Yes, | made the long trip back to Ecuador and to Diospaj Nan and was there from June 18 to Sept. 7. In one sense it was a full and fruitful time. In another, it was very difficult, from the initial meéting of a dozen or more of our missionaries for the forming of a Diospaj Nan Foundation, to the official signing of it all (over) from me to the foundation, to seeing my old estate, my children, etc., etc., ruled and cared for my others, and thus feel that I was virtually relegated to the status of ‘tottering patient,” was most difficult Yet in a sense it was true over a month old, the heart surgery and its mandatory diet was still relatively new, my sight and hearing still super-tow, and the depression fd taken from there when I left on Sept. 30, 1988, a virtual basket-case, still affec- ting me like a dark, low-hanging cloud Lloyd and Linda Rogers are carrying on as direc The angioplasty was just tors and Lloyd is first president of the new foundation Because of my tottering condition, it was decided I would not form a part of the foundation for the first year On the positive side 1) The name ‘‘Diospaj Nan’ (God's Way) con tinues, It is now the ‘*Diospaj Nan Foundation,”” 2) Lloyd is keeping in regular touch with me.

I've been here two weeks and will be moving in tomorrow. with a Christian doctor and his wife and family. 1 am still in a kind of “never never land” and do know not what the future holds — who does? — but I am learning to know better and to trust more Him who holds the future. It’s one thing to admire great men of faith. It's another thing toemulate them. So this could very well be the best chapter of my life. In any case, I'll keep you in formed and am grateful to God that I’ve kept a sem blance of sanity so far throughout this more difficult year of my life John Charters Reflections and recollections Please greet my many friends — our mutual frien- ds — for me. Next time I write, I hope to have a clearer head. I trust you both are well My former place of business, Stanley Humphries secondary school, is once again embroiled in that current educational exercise known as accreditation This is normally a process of self-evaluation by the staff of a school leading hopefully to scholastic self improvement This time, however, the school is asking for com: munity input and has issued a survey to obtain and iden tify the school’s strengths and weaknesses. It includes 19 questions or statements to be checked plus space for personal comments. It is a more revealing document than one might imagine and I would strongly urge that you respond to it. If you have Something to say about the present product and do nothing, you have no right to complain later If you have not received a copy and want one, call the school.
