David Livingstone in Miami

On an afternoon when we were in Miami, we decide to read our books at Starbucks. After a while, a man came in and asked if he could sit in my chair, to be able to be closer to the power outlet to plug in his laptop.
He saw that I was reading a book on the life of David Livingstone. A conversation started and he told us that he was a missionary. "We are missionaries too!" was our reaction. We told him that we were working with OM and then he got very excited. In the 80's he had worked with OM in Europe. After this, he joined another organization and worked in Spain for about 20 years. He was on furlough and was working with local churches in Miami.
The reading of books on missionaries, brings missionaries together...
