Booksigning

My booksigning at the Christian Booksellers Association convention went better than I could even have imagined it. There was a long line of people waiting for my book, BY HANDS OF STRANGERS, the minute I stepped up to the Winepress booth.

I am usually a very quiet person, but I believe in the message of my book, that Jesus came not only to forgive us our sins, but to heal us from all the ways society may have sinned against us. That gave me the confidence to be bold. The message of my book is greater than my story.

I'm convinced that my success at the convention stemmed, at least in part, to the fact that I believed in what I was saying.

Hitler was losing the war and hatred for all Germans was escalating, even for innocent civilians. The family fled shortly before the Russian takeover of Poland in January of l945. In 1951 after much hardship and many trials, at the age of 10 Alice and her family came to the United States. Alice has three grown children.
