Planted with Purpose: The Story Behind Mustard Seed International

In the late 1970s, a woman named Lillian Dickson arrived on the Island of Borneo. She didn’t go with a grand plan or a big organization behind her, but with a heart full of faith. What she encountered there would change the course of her life: children growing up without schools, without teachers, and without hope for something beyond survival. So, she did what she could. She began teaching, training local leaders, and planting seeds of knowledge, faith, and love.
