  Welcome to the world of the super humans we call Saints. They can come back to life, fly through the air, walk on water and so much more. 
   
  Saint Denis lost his head. So he picked it up and carried on walking. 
  Saint Margaret was swallowed whole by a dragon, drowned, set on fire and yet refused to die. 
   
  Saint Simeon lived on top of a massive pillar in the desert. 
  Saint Christina visited purgatory and loved to be beaten up. 
   
  In fact there are thousands and thousands of Saints and all have amazing stories. A great many are also well-known to us all and yet their real stories are not. Saint Nicholas or Santa Claus is actually the patron Saint of sailors, dock workers, thieves, murderers, shoe-shiners and lost lawsuits. Saint Columba recorded the first sighting of the Loch Ness monster as well as stealing the recipe for nettle soup. 
   
  This is a fascinating and often hilarious look at the lives of the real super heroes we call Saints.

  One Woman’s Remarkable Escape from Nazi Germany 
  The peaceful farm life of a teenage girl in Germany is abruptly upended when WWII comes knocking at her family’s door. One month before her sixteenth birthday, Mildred “Mickchen” Schindler and her family are captured by Russian Soldiers. Having already survived life in Hitler’s Nazi Germany, they now face the terror of a new enemy—Stalin’s Red Army. 
  Driven from their home, Mildred and her family become refugees along with a sad, slow-moving caravan of other families who have suffered the same fate. Cleverly disguised by her mother, Mildred avoids being taken to a work camp until one morning when authorities arrive unexpectedly. Her father has already been taken by Russian soldiers, and now she is taken from her mother and brother. 
  Mildred recounts, in meticulous detail, her treacherous journey and the roller coaster of raw emotions she experiences —fear, regret, loneliness, humility, perseverance, and defiance. Mildred’s odyssey of making her way home and finding her family in a war-torn countryside takes many riveting twists and turns. The discovery of a secret, hidden document offers hope for a brighter future. 
  From harrowing to heartwarming, this memoir provides a unique perspective of a Gentile girl’s road to resilience and her fortitude against all odds to forge a life filled with love and laughter. 
  Surviving Hitler, Evading Stalin is a remarkable testimony to the strength of the unconquerable human spirit and an endearing account of God’s faithfulness in the midst of faithless circumstances.
