RICE-Mildred Dean Rice, passed away on Sunday, May 28. She was born in Winnipeg, Canada in 1912, and moved with her parents to Los Angeles when she was eight. She was converted to Christianity at age 13 through the ministry of Sister Aimee Semple MacPherson at the Angeles Temple. Two years later she began attending the Church of the Open Door, on Hope Street in downtown Los Angeles, where she remained a member for the rest of her life. She graduated from Belmont High School in 1930 and soon after became secretary to Mrs. Charles Cowman, President of The Oriental Missionary Society and author of the bestselling devotional book, 'Streams in the Desert'. Mildred married Rolland Rice, in 1934, after graduating from Asbury College in Kentucky, and the couple went to China in 1936 to be missionaries with the Oriental Missionary Society. Mildred learned Chinese, and her first child, Kathleen, was born in Peking in 1938. In 1941, after the Japanese invaded China, the Rices returned to America. Her husband pastored a Methodist church in Indiana, and Mildred's second child, Dickie Dean, was born and died at age 1. The Rice's third child, Edward, was born in 1944. The Rices returned to Peking after the war in 1946 and fled the Communist invasion in 1949, moving first to Canton, then Japan. Mildred's fourth child, David, was born in 1952 in Tokyo, and the Rices returned to Los Angeles. In 1954 they were sent to Taichung, Taiwan where they ministered until 1970. They returned to the Los Angeles area where Rolland passed away in 1973 and Mildred lived the rest of her life. Mildred returned to Taiwan in 1975 and 1984 to teach for a year each time. She also traveled around the world speaking at churches about her missionary experiences, and led tours to China in 1979, 1981, and 1987. She is survived by three children and six grandchildren. The memorial service will be held this Saturday, June 3, at 10:00 at the Church of the Open Door in Glendora. She will be interred at Forest Lawn, West Covina.
