Wikipedia, 19 Octoboer 2021 (Elisabeth Elliot, Elisabeth Elliot (née Howard); born December 21, 1926 in Brussels, Belgium; died June 15, 2015 in Magnolia, Massachusetts; Christian author and speaker. Her first husband, Jim Elliot, was killed in 1956 while attempting to make missionary contact with the Auca people (now known as Huaorani; also rendered as Waorani or Waodani) of eastern Ecuador. She later spent two years as a missionary to the tribe members who killed her husband. Returning to the United States after many years in South America, she became widely known as the author of over twenty books and as a speaker. Elliot toured the country, sharing her knowledge and experience, well into her seventies.)
