How could a two-year-old orphan boy, taken out of his country by mistake in 1975 from halfway around the world, now impact the world as a grown man in 2024?
In this month’s podcast, you’ll hear a story of just how that happened!
Google “Orphan 32,” and you will read how Thanh Campbell was taken from his war-torn country of Vietnam and came to Canada as part of the last flight out of Saigon in 1975 with 56 other orphans.
Thanh has written his memoir Orphan 32 and, most recently, his illustrated children’s book, Lost and Found: Orphan 32 Goes Home.
He has been invited to be a guest on such programs as CBC Radio, TVO, Canada AM, and 100 Huntley Street, with a chance to share his life story with the nation. As a keynote speaker, Thanh has been invited to speak at The United Nations in Toronto, Fortune 500 companies, business groups, conferences, and schools across Canada.
Most recently, Thanh was appointed as the Canadian Director of Partners Worldwide Canada. Founded in 2011, Partners Worldwide Canada pursues ending poverty around the world through business so that all may have an abundant life.
Thanh lives in Drayton, ON, with his wife, Teresa. They have six children and one crazy dog, Theo.
This month, Dean and Thanh will discuss:
- Thanh’s remarkable story of being born into and rescued from the brutal violence of the Vietnam War, immigrating to Canada, and being adopted into a loving Canadian family;
- How he hit rock bottom in his life, and met Jesus there;
- How God worked powerfully and redemptively to help Thanh find his long-lost Vietnamese family later in life;
- The importance of finding identity in Christ as a son of God;
- What a “redemptive business” is and how Thanh and Partners Worldwide are transforming the lives of people in poverty;
- The hope for the hopeless that can only be found in Jesus!
In this podcast, we will hear this amazing story of the value of family, faith, and the power of hope in God’s great plan of redemption. Don’t miss it!
