Could Christ say to these children of the jungle: \"I have come not to destroy but to fulfill. I do not want to destroy all that is rich and good in your \u003cem\u003eadat\u003c\/em\u003e, in your unwritten law and in your treasured cultural heritage. I come that you might have life and have it more abundantly?\" Hidden in the pockets of the Malayan highland jungles are a people who have lived in the hills for generations, perhaps centuries, and maybe even millennia. In 1930, an American family decided to befriend and help these people, known only to the outside world as the Sengoi.
