DENNIS
Good Morning. This is Dennis Gossett, Associate Pastor at Central United Methodist Church. Looking
back into the not so distant past, we find a wonderful Protestant saint named Corrie ten Boom who
suffered great trials during the Nazi occupation of Holland. The ten Boom family demonstrated the
love of Christ to all who were escaping the persecution of the Gestapo.
Eventually, their Christian love cost them everything. Both, her sister and father died in the Nazi
Concentration Camps.
The astonishing aspect of this entire story is what occurred after the occupation ended. Once Ms. Corrie
was released, she began constructing recovery centers for both victims and persecutors.
Jesus Christ came to set free all those who are oppressed and victimized. There is always an open
invitation at Central for everyone to come and experience the healing power of Christ.
