Mr adewale, her former head of mission was assigned to ably coach her and Dave on their role. The do's and don'ts of the position.

Apart from the fact that she felt she was not capable to be a head of mission she had another fear. Okukunle is known to be a village strong in idolatry and witchcraft.

If it is known that a person comes from that village, he or she will be treated with awe and respect.

Dara's third worry is Dave. Dave is a flirt and he had always had his eyes on her.

She had kept him at arms length because she knew why he was trying to get close to her.

She had put her worry aside because recently he seem to be into Angela, another ravishing beauty at her work place.

She had a dream and in that dream she had worn the same gown. She saw herself ministering and miracles took place.
She scoffed, it must be because she was thinking too much about the mission.

She worried that God may not use her like the others.

She folded the gown nearly and placed it in her traveling bag.

The door opened, she knew it was her mother. Her mother...
