Most Christians know of Colleen\\u2019s sister-in-law, Elisabeth Elliot, and her husband, Jim Elliot. However, very few know the story of Herbert Elliot, Jim\\u2019s brother, and his wife Colleen. Colleen is an amazing woman worth knowing!

In this episode, we learned about Colleen\\u2019s early years; how she met her husband; her education; and later how God led her and her husband into full-time ministry in the jungles of Peru. Colleen and her husband Herbert served God together for over sixty years, and chronicled their time together through voluminous correspondence.

Colleen\\u2019s story is a love story: first and foremost, her love for Jesus and her great commitment to Him; secondly, her love for Herbert (and his for hers); and thirdly, Colleen\\u2019s warmth and love for all the people she knew and ministered to.
