Faith and Flight

The fateful story of arrest and exile - that became the passport to life for thousands.

Through a Divine twist of fate, the Feinzeigs, along with thousands of Polish refugees, were spared the Nazi boot during the Holocaust, finding haven on frozen Soviet soil.

Under distrustful Communist eyes, they traveled from barracks to collective farms, beset with misery, sickness, and hunger. But nothing, neither pain nor tragedy, could extinguish the flames of their faith.
