The stories reflected here are accounts from the journeys of Ben Manthei and his extended family and are a reflection of how God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. The Manthei family knows that their successes come only from their extraordinary God. Recognizing that all of us are truly ordinary people, each of us can accept the challenge from this family to make a difference that will last forever for people in the world in which we live. That would be the prayer of Ben and Ruth. Dick Abel, Brig. Gen., USAF (Ret.)
