This story gives a history of one of the greatest things that has happened in the past century. God taught Israel by His testimonies. They were then reminded of His love in all of His miracles. He told them to tell their children of the things He had done. This was proof that He would do the same for them. Testimonies are more valuable, at times, than a sermon. And so as the LORD said in; Psalms 78:5 - For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children: Psalms 78:6 - That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children: It is also written in; Psalms 19:7 - The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. This testimony is a reflection of how God has worked in the past and what He will accomplish in these last days. This book was written with the intent of inspiring our hopes and give us a new zeal to serve the LORD and work for Him more fervently than we ever have before.

A lifelong passion for Greece led Carol Freeman Gordon to explore the history of the country's once vibrant Jewish communities. Born in South Africa and migrating to Australia with her family in 1995, Carol devoted years to researching the experiences of Greece's Jewish population during the Second World War and its near-destruction during the Holocaust, in the hope of one day sharing this story with the wider community. This screenplay, illustrated with the photographs of Emmanuel T. Santos, inspired the filming of the documentary, "Following Shira's Journey: A Greek Jewish Odyssey," (2014) directed by Carol Freeman Gordon and Natalie Cunningham. An exhibition of Emmanuel's photography from the film shoot is also being presented to audiences. With this project, Carol and her team hope to offer an insight into the little-known history of the Greek Jews and their small yet dynamic modern-day communities.
