• In World War II, German soldiers were loading Jews destined to die in concentration camps into rail cars. A woman saw a soldier shoving a Jewish mother and her little girl toward the station. The soldier stopped the mother and demanded, “Is she your daughter?” The terrified mother looked straight into the eyes of the woman standing nearby, and said, “No, the child is hers!” From that moment on, the woman, who was a devout Christian, raised the Jewish girl as her own daughter.
