Doing What She Should

Irena Sendler was a Polish mother in Warsaw, Poland during the early years of WWII. She quietly worked as an administrator for the soup kitchens.  For two years she smuggled Jewish children out of Poland, changed their names and then linked them up with other brave people who were to see they would be cared for and reunited with their parents after the war.  She kept the names of these children recorded on strips of paper and buried in a jar in her friend’s back yard.  She was caught by the German Gestapo and imprisoned.  Her captors tortured her and broke both her legs and ankles trying to extract information from her which she refused to give.  She was sentenced to death by firing squad but at the last moment was secretly rescued by a German officer and sent away.  It wasn’t until 1999, over 50 years later, that her story was discovered and made public. Records show that she rescued more than 2,500 children.

Irena never thought of her self as a hero, just someone who did what she should in a time of need.

There are some that quietly go about sharing the financial needs of BBN radio.  They have caught a glimpse of what it means to invest in the lives of people they have never known and will never see this side of heaven.  But their gifts, be they small or large, are used of God to get the Word of God to millions around the world on radio and on the internet in 8 languages.  Perhaps few know of their giving, but He who keeps the eternal records will one day make all things known and will openly reward the faithful ones.

A word from BBN Executive Director, Carl Redeman:

Our English Spring Share-a-Thon (April 8 -10) provides you a unique opportunity to help us financially with projects that our ministry is faced with. For example, we have new radio stations in Florida and are developing Apps for mobile devices that will help share the Gospel and teach God's Word to many more people just like you!  Please consider giving a special financial gift during our Spring Share-a-thon. This will help us see even more lives changed by the power of the Gospel. Can we count on you?
