It was ordinary day in August when a sudden rockfall trapped 33 Chilean miners deep underground. Among them was a deeply committed Christian who was to guide the group in prayers and offer them spiritual support.
Jose Henriquez was that man and now he has come to the UK with CMS to tell the remarkable story of how his faith sustained him during the 69 days the group were trapped underground - and how the rescue he sees as a miracle has driven him to become a missionary.
With him (and translating in this podcast) is his new friend the Rev Alf Cooper, CMS mission partner and Protestant chaplain to the President of Chile.
