Love Never Fails

During World War II, 6 million innocent Jewish people were exterminated during the Holocaust. One million of them were children. At war’s end, the forgotten survivors were liberated. Hundreds of thousands went to Israel as living skeletons … having lost everything: mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters, and all their possessions.

Today, over 60 years later, more than 200,000 are still tragically forgotten in Israel. They were children in the concentration camps and are now over 80 years old. And most live in hardship and poverty.

Corrie ten Boom was a young woman when she and her family risked their lives to extend Christian love to Jewish people. They hid, sheltered, and saved the lives of more than 800 Jewish men, women, and children from death at the hands of the Nazis.

The ten Booms ran a clock shop. In the window was a small advertising sign for watches. The sign was a secret code known only to fugitive Jewish people. When the sign was in the window, fugitive Jews knew it was safe to enter the ten Boom shelter. A missing sign meant it was not safe.

Once inside, the Jewish fugitives were taken to a room where they crawled through a small hole in the wall to a hiding place.

Nazis eventually discovered the ten Boom shelter and sent the family to the same Nazi concentration camps they had saved so many others from facing. Every family member except Corrie died.

As founder of the Corrie ten Boom Fellowship, Mike Evans has served for almost 30 years as Chairman of the Board of the ten Boom Museum and Foundation in Holland. The museum is housed in the restored ten Boom home.

The Legacy of Corrie ten Boom is one of the most inspiring stories of all time. Her true-life adventure in faith and courage has been read by millions in the best-selling book, The Hiding Place. It has been seen by millions more in the movie by the same name produced by Dr. Billy Graham.

Today, many Holocaust victims who were children during World War II and survived the concentration camps are still living. They live in Israel now, and they are over 80 years old. There are over 200,000 of them living in poverty … totally forgotten. Haven’t they suffered enough?

Mike Evans is reaching out to help elderly Holocaust victims in the same spirit of Christian love as Corrie ten Boom had. They are living in agony! We can hide them, as Corrie ten Boom did, from the misery of pain, poverty, and sickness. We need your help.

There are over 200,000 elderly surviving Holocaust victims still living in Israel, and they desperately need our help. Just basic things that we take for granted, like medicine, food, warm coats, and blankets.

There is a special place in my heart for the Holocaust survivors. I am Jewish, and my mother came from an orthodox Jewish background. My great-grandfather and his congregation were all burned to death in the Soviet Union as Jew haters set the synagogue on fire, screaming, “Christ Killers!” during the service, with them inside. When I shared this story with Corrie ten Boom the day I met her in 1972, she wept. She said, “I pity those Russians, for they have touched the apple of God’s eye.”

There is anguish from the Holocaust in my family, and as a Christian, I want to comfort those suffering Holocaust survivors with the same Christ-like love that Corrie ten Boom and her family gave them. I’m not asking you to risk your life every day like the ten Boom family did.

I’m not asking you to lose your life for them, as some of the ten Boom family members did. I’m just asking you to give and provide something practical and so urgently needed.

We can’t fail them. They need medicine, food, coats, and blankets that they can’t afford. We can provide it … with your help. We have already distributed supplies to many of them, but there are thousands more who only receive help when you give from your heart right how.

From the heart of Corrie ten Boom, love never fails, so join me and the Corrie ten Boom Fellowship and bless the poor right now.
