Eight Little Words: How God Led a Mennonite Farm Boy to a Remote Town in Nepal

At nineteen, Otho was living the only life he had ever known or dreamed of knowing - being a farmer. But then a heartbreaking tragedy shook his idyllic world. As he angrily lashed out at God in the middle of a cow pasture early one morning in 1952, he heard eight little words that forever changed his outlook and the course of his life. Eight Little Words is the story of God taking a young man from a Mennonite farming community in Maryland to a remote town in Nepal and later to other locations of service. Through joining Mennonite Central Committee's Pax Service after WWII, Otho was first stationed in Germany to help rebuild after the war and then in Tansen, Nepal, to help build a new hospital in a country newly opened to the Western world. Ultimately, this book is an account of God's faithfulness as He unfolds His purpose and plan in the life of a man fully committed to Him.
