Summer '08 Book Club: Ultimate Sacrifice

Thanks to everyone who voted in our poll! mkPLANET's first official Book Club will be taking a look at: Ultimate Sacrifice: An Intimate Look into Missionary Boarding Schools and the Ultimate Sacrifice of the Children
By Paul R. Friesen

Description: Cross-generational pain, drive to serve, the fear of failure, and chronic systematic problems will grip your heart as the truth unfolds. The story of one Missionary family caught in a cycle of unresolved grief leading to a seemingly fateful ending of a marriage. But was it fateful or a reprieve to break the cycle?

Paul is a missionary child who exposes the truth about the Missionary family during the 60's and 70's. His personal experience will make you laugh and weep. The ignorance of the sending community to his plight can make you angry. He is not alone. There are many who do not have the energy to tell their story. Healing is a long road for those who have suffered abuse resulting in broken relationships. Break the cycle. Become informed.
