Edward Roffe (George Edward Roffe), George Fune U.S.A. Troutdale, OR 2024 634tr. paperback, illustration 26 cm In 1929 Rev. G. Edward (Ed) Roffe arrived in Luang Prabang, the first Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA) missionary to the French colony of Laos. Within the year, his fiancé, Thelma Mole, joined him as his bride. Despite significant challenges in French Indochina in the early twentieth century, the young couple thrived, leaving a noteworthy legacy. Ed Roffe's lifelong collaboration with other mission groups began when the Presbyterian mission turned their ministry in northern Laos over to him and the C&MA. The Swiss Brethren, who had served in Laos since 1902, sent two young ministers to the Roffes in Luang Prabang. They provided leadership for the C&MA-planted Lao Evangelical Church.
