At the end she predicted that the USA was going to be over run by the occult that way Germany had been prior to Hitler. At the time I didn't think it was possible, but now I see it coming about. I suppose she could see signs of it since she traveled so much. I have also collected most of her books, especially the ones she wrote herself. I just finished reading a book from her again last week,her life stories are amazing.. I would have loved to meet her knowing her background, I can just picture in my mind the family Ten Boom living where they lived as I'm from the Netherlands also 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The acting is superb, the subject matter, in this case missions, makes one want to fly to China and preach Immanuel. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any signs or monuments that tell of Anna and her impact there? And is their literature on it? I would love to add it to my pile of books. ?? Yes, I considered it a blessing from the Lord...was in the travel industry. Gave me my interest in Asian missions. Didn't see anything about Anna but I knew her story.

He went to minister to the dying, and gave them hope in hopelessnsss. Such a call is not what we often want, or that many missionaries would desire. You can see his story Molokai (1999) starring Sam Neil, Peter O’Tools and David Wenham. The film challenges me, would I go knowing I would be ministering to those who will die and that I may die? Yes, Fr. Damien...quite a story. If I recall right, he died of leprosy. I didn't know there was a film from 1999 about him... would be interesting to watch!

Damien is played by Faramir and his devotion to the lepers of Molokai stands as a testament against the rising anti-missionary bias in Hawaiian schools and traditions. While certainly there were bad missionaries just as there are bad pastors and priests, one must compare the good and bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see him in “The Promise” (2016). ⚠️ WARNING, while the film The Promise is worth seeing to know about the Armenian Genocide, there is a scene of conjugal (sexual) detail between two lovers after they go to Armenian Orthodox Church to listen to cantors. Be advised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
