Listen "#36 Adriana Watkins lecture - "The Life Is Given Eventually: Joseph Dutton’s Story”"
Episode Synopsis
This episode features the story of Joseph Dutton, an American veteran who spent the last half of his life working with leprosy patients in Molokai, Hawaii. This lecture by Ms. Adriana Watkins was given to students at STMA in April 2023. Dutton’s life is a beautiful example of the way God’s Providence follows us through strange turns of fate, and even through our own mistakes. Some very helpful resources made this lecture possible, including: The Joseph Dutton Guild’s reissuing of an old Dutton biography: https://www.josephdutton.org/product-page/dutton-prayer-card-1 “The Soul of Kalaupapa,” a documentary about the colony: https://vimeo.com/113259515 A collection of the only few of Dutton’s letters available online: https://www.jstor.org/stable/44209102?seq=3"
