What People Are Saying About Leaving The American Sector

“When I started reading Jeff Thompson’s Leaving the American Sector, I immediately knew I was in for a very special experience. Although I had met him, I had no idea of the incredible journey on which the Lord had taken him. I was amazed how so many adventures and experiences have been packed into a relatively short life span. I was hooked from the first page. I couldn’t put it down and finished it in one sitting, something I rarely do. It is one of the most engrossing books I have read.”

Dr. Clyde Cook
President of Biola University


“Exciting, as you journey with Jeff on the daring and dangerous missions into Eastern Europe and Russia to bring the word of God and other helpful materials to the believers inside the Iron Curtain. Inspiring, to see what God can do through the obedience and courage of one young man, willing to be led by the Spirit of God. Proof that The Acts of the Apostles is an unfinished book.”

Chuck Smith, Pastor
Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa


“This is a page turner!  I have known Jeff Thompson as a friend and founder of EEO for many years.  His heart for the widow and orphan, and his determination to reach others with the Gospel of salvation has been clearly evident in a life vigorously lived for Christ.  From the depths of despair of the abandoned orphan to the heights of KGB and Kremlin power, this book will inspire and  inform you.  It may change your life.  This book has a very important message for the American church.”

Richard J. Broggi, Board of Directors
Pinnacle Forum America


“I highly recommend Jeff Thompson’s book, Leaving The American Sector.  It is an awe-inspiring story of how God calls and raises up modern heroes of the faith to share God’s Word with oppressed people. Having partnered with Jeff and Eastern European Outreach since 1997, there is much more Jeff could have written about camps, children sponsorship, and educational scholarships.  As Christians continue to reach out to people in need with Christ’s love, the magnificence of the EEO story keeps unfolding.”

Jeff Nellermoe, Senior Pastor
Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, Sandy, Utah


“I felt myself traveling with Jeff back behind the Iron Curtain to these distant lands. This book is packed with adventure and excitement and ‘compassion that fails not.’ Jeff’s God is an enormous God, faithful to the very end. You’ll be challenged to “live on” and realize at the end of each day…God is faithful! Jeff and Paula Thompson have an exciting story that will capture your attention and your heart.”

Brian Bell, Senior Pastor
Calvary Chapel Murrieta



“Leaving The American Sector is a true testimony to the glorious goodness and grace of God. Jeff, Paula and the ministry of EEO have inspired many other ministries and mission organizations over the last two decades. If you read this book from beginning to end, God may inspire you to serve Him in wonderful ways you never imagined possible.”
