In the early 1930s, an Irish Pentecostal missionary, Isobelle Hetherington, arrived in Far North Queensland. She was accompanied by an Aboriginal woman named Nellie who was a talented vocalist. Together they began ministering to the Kuku Yulanji people who had been forced to gather in small groups throughout the Daintree Rainforrest.

Ten years later a mission was built on land purchased by the Assembly of God (Qld.) beside the Daintree River. (back cover)
