“Whom shall I send…who will go? Here am I; send me.” – Isaiah 6:8; KJV With irrepressible zeal and love for the people of Africa; William Harrison Anderson set out in 1895; with his wife; Nora; and two other missionaries on what would become the journey of a lifetime. They traveled for six weeks by oxcart from South Africa to establish what is now known as Solusi University. Those early years brought many difficulties; including the dreaded malaria; which killed a number of their group. By 1901; the Andersons were the only ones left. Undeterred; they forged ahead assuming whatever role necessary to further the work—builder; farmer; teacher; preacher; doctor; or nurse. In 1905; Harry walked nine hundred miles to search out a new location for what would become Rusangu Mission; now known as Zambia Adventist University. During his nearly fifty years of mission work in Africa; Anderson established the work among the Bechuanas; and opened a number of mission stations and schools. Harry Anderson’s legacy of faith and courage will renew your heart with a passion for service that comes through knowing Jesus as Savior and Friend.
