Caring for Children Who Were Abandoned by the World

- It appears to be an idyllic holiday moment: two children gaze at a Christmas tree. In fact, the children are Jewish, and the photograph helped save their lives during the Holocaust. As we approach end-of-year holiday celebrations, we remember those who gave the greatest gift of all: refuge in a time of need. Join us live on Facebook to hear several stories: In one, a Muslim family, under the cover of darkness, finds shelter for a fleeing Jewish family. In another, after the war, a German Jewish refugee creates a sanctuary for dozens of children after losing most of her own family in the Holocaust.

God bless the family in Albania who sheltered the Jewish family from the German Nazis.
My grandmother was abandoned in a orphanage nuns school in Budafok, Budapest.
She never recuperate from this trauma
Thank you Dr Friedberg for bringing these beautiful children to the attention of the world. They should never be forgotten.
Thank you everyone for producing this piece. So valuable and touching. My own family was mostly lost even before the camps came into existence . My last living relative in Germany hid in plain sight in Berlin only to be sent to Auschwitz and murdered 2 months before the armistice.
Thanking GOD for Alice
God bless the guard who saved & sent the Jewish family to Albania & Albanian family who hid them .
Also God bless Alice, & all the children now adults who were on the program .
It was heartwarming to watch the reunion . Thank you for sharing this . ❤️
Very moving stories. Fritz's drawing depicts so maturely and realistically the experience of the firing squad that deeply impresses me.
So moving! G-d bless their souls!!!
Love it..."Be an Alice"
Alice 💕 all of these beautiful children so brave
Lovely stories with a great inspiration at the end.
In 1969 I was a college girl who found herself in Siena, Italy at an outdoor cafe and surrounded by Israeli students my age. My generation didn't hesitate to talk politics and gripes. One handsome boy leaned over and asked me, "Why didn't the people of the US and other countries react...do something???" I didn't want to respond with a cliche...so I asked, "I know you must really care...but remember when our Cherokee were sent on a death march...and the shipping out of Holland was packed with Africans for the New World...who tried to stop that? Did European Jews try to intervene?" He sat back and said, "Yes, I see..."
With the passage of years I'm really glad I tried to really say something because probably his parents or grandparents were survivors and I could tell he was very moved over the question.
The guilty bystander issue is rooted in lifestyle choices, money making ambitions, and peer pressure in the culture.
The genocide of our indigenous in the US and the great shipping fortunes of the 17th century, and so on were all about the loot....WWII was the greatest, most cruel armed robbery in history, couched in racial pride.
Thank you for introducing us all to those brave, decent people who stood up to the tide of history.
I'm Matthew's mom using this!!
That is not a good comparison. You are right that European Jews did nothing to help when the. Cherokee were on the Trail of Tears. It is possible that no one outside of North America knew what was happening.
However. During WW2, a LOT of Americans thought it was good that Germany was expelling its Jews. A lot were horrified when they learned of the genocide but some were fine with that. Bit even without all of that, most Americans did not want to enter WW2
@@farapipsqueek636 I am an American, and I’m not going to make any excuses for my country in not letting Jews to come to the US to escape the Nazis. There was a ship full of Jews that escaped, but countries refused to take them, including the US. These poor people had to go back to Europe, and they were all murdered. Also, in the US, our own people were put in camps because they were of Japanese descent. All of this happened due to hatred, fear, and jealousy. It can happen anytime, and in any country.
One more thing, when the Indigenous people were murdered, or sent to Oklahoma, Europeans would not have been aware of that. Without the media that we have today, or during WWII, it would have been some time before they were aware of it.
Thank you so much for sharing with me this video.
When was an adolescent I read in school The Dairy of Anne Frank.
Then I was unable to visualize the magnitude of the Holocausto. Today my comprehension has expanded so much that there are no words in any language than can be used to describe my state of shock.
However, I do believe that our Creator will step in and repair from the root all the damage done.
Jehovah God promises that those who have died will live again in Isaiah 26:19:
"Your dead will live. My corpses will rise. Wake up and shout for joy, residents of the dust! For your dew is like the morning dew, and the earth will let those who are powerless in death live again."
He will bring them back to life; that is the hope of the resurrection.
Have a super great peaceful day!
Hello from San Diego Ca. USA
This is timely at any time of the year and in any year. Working to be a better person for others and in doing so raising Us All up.

Beautiful stories
Greetings from Brazil
Thanks so much for sharing these amazing stories. 🙏🌝
I diden´t see this before now as I had a very bussy Sunday as i am in the church choir and we were doing our regular advent eucarist and then a concert at night (nine lessons and carols. Love it so sadly missed this just want you to know how much I admire you for showing this sad chapter of history. I enjoy that so much..My best seasonal greetings from Farum, Denmark.
I love these shows
So good to find there were good and caring people back then and, still is... Hopefully the present non-caring people will sée and not least understand this..
Thankyou so much for sharing this moving story 💛
God Bless everybore! Shalom! congratulations from Estate of Goiás , BRASIL!
Felicitaciones por la altura con que tocan estos temas en cada jornada prevista!!! Saludos desde Argentina
Baruch Hashem!
Amazing story. It took alot of courage to risk own lives to help these people. It still stuns me at how evil Nazi regime was. Children are so precious children of all nations but to try kill them due to race and religion is beyond evil.
Abortion is a holocaust as well.
Thank God for the Alices of this world.
I want to be an Alice also.
Thank you for the video. I know you guys gmostly focus on the jewish victims, I guess because the museum deals mostly with jewish survivors, but it would be nice if you guys also talked about the other victims. I loved the videos on the disabled people and the euthanasia project. It would be nice to hear a bit of the other minorities (like the romani or the lgbt+ people) and political prisioners too
Should be "shed"
We can all be Alice's to each other, only through JESUS CHRIST..... otherwise we are also depraved human beings who only care for themselves.....If you really knew me the way I really am ( without CHRIST ) you would want nothing to do with me, and vice/versa...if I really knew you without HIM....I would want nothing to do with you......I love the Jewish people because body CHRIST JESUS WHO she'd HIS life blood for me and for the world on that cross for my sins , not HIS....HE had none HE is the spotless , sinless LAMB of GOD WHO takes away the sins of all those who trust as HIM to forgive their sins.....HE gives us new life....we are born-again. Read Isaiah 53.......read Psalm 22.......
Who persecuted the Jews in Europe for 2000 culminating in the Holocaust? Oh, right: Christians.
I'm afraid you are a bigot. Atheists and agnostics can be as good or even better than religious zealots.
anti-semitism was invented and promoted byChristians. For that and other reasons as a non-jew I prefer to have ZERO to do with Christianity.
If the evil human in charge (I never want to call his name ) who killed the Jews because of their looks why didn't he saved the blue eyes ones? this is so horrific to kill so many
