Emphasis Preaching Journal

Martin and Olga emigrated to the United States after World War II. Strangers to a new land, barely conversant in English, they sought out other German-speaking people. A kindly, older German, Otto, took them under his wings. He found Martin a job in a local meat packing plant and Olga a job with a woman who cleaned houses. Otto also offered Martin and Olga a place to live at much reduced rates. Martin and Olga were grateful. Several years later, Otto remarked that he had purchased some property in the country and was looking for someone to live on it and work the land.
