Photographer Don Rutledge, who told the story of missions through his camera lens for several generations of Southern Baptists, died on Feb. 19, 2013. He was 82. First in the United States and eventually throughout the world, Rutledge captured quiet moments of humanity and mission ministry in hundreds of classic photographs taken for the Home (now North American) Mission Board and later the Foreign (now International) Mission Board. He called them “windows on the soul.” His images inspired millions of Southern Baptists to pray for and participate in missions.

This photo was taken as Don visited an Eskimo house with two volunteer workers. So happy was the family to see their friends everyone ignored Don’s click-click-click. [photo by Don Rutledge]
