Foreign preacher... In this Thursday, May 23, 2013 photo, Nick Vujicic, an Australian evangelist who was born with no limbs, on his wheelchair, delivers his speech to a crowd of about 25,000 students and young people at My Dinh national stadium in Hanoi, Vietnam. Vujicic, who is able to stand up and move around on his pelvis, shuffled round on a small table set up on a stage on corner of the field. In a talk laced with jokes, platitudes and attempts at Vietnamese, he spoke out against bullying and drinking; on the need for forgiveness and hope; and respect for family. All those themes resonate with Vietnamese and their leaders, one of whom _ the vice president _ was watching from the VIP area. (AP Photo/Na Son Nguyen)
