Behind a Tiny Story Myrna Pilpa Barinaga

A story of a family's struggle and survival of the brutal Japanese-American war. I was one of eight children in that family, walking for days in the jungle for safety and living on prayers. Thankfully, the war ended with us all in the family alive and together. Marriage and childbearing brought four children, two with very special needs. Searching for help led us to come to America. I was a total wreck. My faith was at the breaking point. This was one time in my life when I felt God had abandoned me.
