Roy H. Kreider

"The state of Israel was established, amid much controversy, in 1948. In 1953,
Roy and Florence Kreider, with their six-month-old son, were commissioned to
serve in Israel. For over three decades they experienced the hopes and
challenges of living in this new nation. From the Sinai, Six-Day, and Yom
Kippur Wars to the ever-present threat of terrorism to the antagonism between
Christians, Jews, and Muslims to the constant possibility of being evicted from
the country, life in Israel was often fraught with danger and uncertainty.
However, ultimately, this book tells a story of peacemaking and reconciliation.
Told by a missionary, this is a side of Israel that goes beyond the political
tragedies and religious hatreds, and sees the possibility of God's unifying
spirit and presence in the Holy Land." --back cover… (mehr)
