Betty Elliot accepted her husband's involvement with the Aucas (Waorani people) because she shared his deep commitment to spreading the Christian gospel. Despite the dangers involved, she believed in the importance of their mission to bring the message of Jesus to the indigenous tribe. Their shared faith and dedication to their beliefs ultimately led her to support his decision.

Where was Jim Elliot killed?
Jim Elliot was a missionary in Ecuador to the Auca Indians. He died when he was trying to communicate with the Indians on January 8, 1956. He died with Nate Saint, Pete Fleming, and Roger Youderian. They didn't injure a single Auca. Later, Nate Saints wife and children went to live with the Aucas and befriended the very Aucas that had killed her husband.
When was Sociedad Deportiva Aucas created?
Sociedad Deportiva Aucas was created on 1945-02-06.
How were the Auca Indians reached with the gospel?
The Auca Indians, also known as the Waorani, were reached with the gospel primarily through the efforts of five missionaries, including Jim Elliot and Nate Saint, in the late 1950s. After years of preparation and attempts to make contact, the missionaries established a friendship with the Auca by dropping gifts from an airplane. Tragically, in January 1956, the missionaries were killed by the very tribe they sought to reach. However, their sacrifices led to later successful missions, resulting in many Aucas eventually accepting the Christian faith.
