In Korku, India, Ringu and his family live in fear of sickness, evil spirits, and wild animals until missionaries shared with them the power of the one true God. Based on the facts of Ringu's story, children can experience life in a faraway land and develop a heart for reaching the lost.

While Ringu and his family are fictitious characters, the story is based on events in the Korku villages and is true to Life. The ministry of Mr. Grubbs and his illness and death are true.
