Come to the group of islands poetically dubbed as the "Pearl of the Orient Seas," where in the early 1900s, American missionaries found fertile hearts for the Gospel seed to grow.This two-in-one book chronicles the beginning and the growth of the Adventist work in the Phillippines, focusing on the lives of Leon Z. Roda and Alfonso P. Roda, father-and-son.
