Author, biblical scholar and businessman Spiros Zodhiates was born in Cyprus in the 1920s. He worked with the American Mission to the Greeks and has helped raise a great deal of money for food and money for Greek children. He has established more than twenty orphanages, and his organization is active in over fifty countries, including a Bible school in Indonesia and leper colonies in India.
