What motivates a woman to serve in southern Africa for her entire career as a missionary? Why is she asked to write a book about her life and ministry? This is the story of Dr. Sheila Foster Fabiano, who carries on a family legacy for Christ, service in Africa that has lasted over 100 years.
Dr. Sheila Foster Fabiano is a third-generation missionary who was born and raised in Zambia, Central Africa where her paternal grandparents as well as her parents lived and worked as missionaries. After completing degrees in nursing and biblical studies from Rutgers University and Regent College, respectively, she went to Angola in 1979 to serve first as a pediatric nurse practitioner and part-time Bible teacher. She is now a full-time faculty member of Instituto Superior (Suprior) de Teologia (Teolozia) Evangelica no Lubango (ISTEL) in Angola. Her PhD is from Trinity International University.
