Charlotte Elliott was in ill health, confined to a wheelchair and sad because her circle of friends were enjoying adventuresome lives in the service of the Lord.
She met Rev. Cesar Malan and confided in him that she wanted to be saved, but wondered how she could come to Christ. His reply was, “Come just as you are.”
