Produktbeschreibung
Caught in the turbulence of The Spanish Inquisition, Jacob and Faye, European Sephardic Jews from Seville, Spain, faced an uncertain future. In an extraordinary act of courage and love, Faye saved her beloved Jacob from being drafted into the Turkish army, and together they embarked on a perilous journey to America in 1925. Jewish migration to America brought hope and freedom, but also great challenges, as they struggled to build a new life in Seattle. Jacob and Faye: A Grandparents' Story is a real-life love story of enduring family and faith set against the backdrop of 20th-century Europe and 1925-1950 America. As Jewish immigrants in America, they raised six children during the height of family life during the Great Depression, relying on their unwavering faith in God and the strength of their community to persevere through difficult times. With money scarce and the future uncertain, they repeatedly saw God's provision in the darkest moments. The story continues as Jacob and Faye lived through the horrors of World War II while their family in Europe faced unimaginable dangers. The attack on Pearl Harbor brought the global conflict even closer to their new home, as they grappled with the realities of war and loss. Through it all, their story is one of having faith in difficult times-of holding onto hope, love, and the strength found in each other. After decades of love, sacrifice, and dedication to their family, Faye had to face the ultimate test-life without Jacob when cancer took him from her. Yet even in her grief, she leaned on the same faith and community that had sustained them through the years. This book beautifully captures the essence of family and faith, illustrating how love for one another, reliance on God, and connection to community can give strength, hope, and peace in even the most difficult of circumstances. Jacob and Faye: A Grandparents' Story is an inspiring testament to the power of love, faith, and perseverance in overcoming life's greatest trials.
