Robert Livingstone Foster was born to missionary parents in Zambia, Africa. His parents prayed fervently that God would make their son a missionary doctor who could save lives and alleviate suffering as he also cared for people’s souls. God answered their prayers by using their son, Dr. Bob Foster, to pioneer medical care, establish hospitals, train nurses, and share the hope of Christ in poverty stricken and war-torn regions of Africa.

Kids will enjoy the thrilling real-life missionary stories of God’s protection and provision as Dr. Bob endures hardship, encounters deadly snakes, enjoys dramatic answers to prayer, overcomes challenges to build hospitals in remote areas of Africa, and faithfully shares the gospel of Jesus Christ with many who have never heard.

This 6-part missionary story for kids includes activity ideas to enhance the learning process and provide further teaching to help the children know God works through his people to do good work. Printable story visuals, historical photos, and activity pages for each part of the story are included in this digital download as well as a PPT slide presentation.

Story Excerpt: When you’re sick, where do you usually go? Maybe your parents give you medicine at home, or maybe you need to go to the doctor or the hospital. Did you know there are places around the world where there are no doctors or hospitals? Where can you go to learn about Jesus? You can go to church or Bible club or even learn about Jesus in your own home, but did you know there are also places in the world where there are no Bibles or churches, and people have never heard about Jesus? We’re going to learn about a man named Dr. Bob Foster, who was born in a place with both of these problems. God used him to help many people who needed a doctor and who needed to hear about Jesus.

    I just finished this six week curriculum with my Sunday school class and they loved it! The story of Dr. Bob Foster was very well done. I’m so excited that now my students in my Sunday school class have a heart for missions. Praise the Lord!

      We’re so glad you’ve been able to use this story and that the kids loved it! I told it to my own kids while we were researching and writing it and they loved it too! His book, “The Sword & The Scalpel,” has even more incredible stories that we just couldn’t fit into this abbreviated, kid-friendly, missionary story for kids.
