Pa Thom (Ted Olbrich) in USA
I made one of my whirlwind "Stateside visits" this past month. We had Sonny Weimer, Errol Faulkes, Jenny Robinson, and myself spend two days at the Faith Comes by Hearing International Headquarters in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA.It is difficult to imagine taking the Bible and dramatizing it into 83 speaking parts and then putting it out in now more than 171 languages. It is quite an operation. It was a great pleasure to meet Jerry Jackson, the founder of the organization who at age 77 still works full time at reaching the world and inspired this worn out old man to keep at it.We have received a new shipment of the "Mini Proclaimers" programmed in both Cambodian and Lao. During the trip I managed to speak in five churches and snag a good Ford 4x4 pickup for the rice farm from "Big D" in Colorado. Thanks "D"!
