About this episode

Steve Conover shares his experiences from Poland, reflecting on the Holocaust and the hope found in Jewish children's camps.

The Friends of Israel (FOI) Executive Director Steve Conover recently returned from a trip to Poland. There he saw the concentration camps at Auschwitz and Birkenau, where many of the unspeakable tragedies of the Holocaust occurred. But then, Steve visited FOI Poland’s camps for Jewish children and their families. This safe, loving community of Jewish children enjoying fun activities together served as a beautiful picture of rebirth in a country once enveloped in darkness. And each day, The Friends of Israel continues to minister joyfully, shining the light of the Messiah in the hearts of these Jewish families and others all throughout Eastern Europe!
