equador in orchard

There were EQuaDoriaNs in Orchard Road...spotted today!!

basking, mellow music....
with Red indian hats
(red indians are not related to their culture at all, dunno why they had them on display)


What are these people: From Equador, the jungles which Jim Elliot's and team (during 1950s) reached out to that caused he and the team's deaths.

What are their beliefs: Christianity, because after they killed the missionary Jim and the team of men who were reaching out to them, their wives still went back to reach out to these people and they were so touched i think, that they decided to believe in God.
I asked what religion was their country and one of the men at the side replied "Christianity".....
And coincidentally i'm reading "Through gates of splendour" by Elizabeth elliot. that is one fantastic book.
