Posted by Fred Steiner on November 23, 2009 - 6:29am

St. Mary's Catholic Church is hosting Susie Sandager at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Dec. 2, at 7, to do a presentation called "Corrie Remembers."

Sandager does a one-person presentation of the life of Corrie ten Boom. Corrie was a member of the ten Boom family, a Christian family who hid Jews in the family watch shop during the Holocaust to save them from execution.

The family was later arrested and placed in a concentration camp. Corrie was released nearly miraculously. Admission to the program is free, but a freewill offering will be taken to support the work of Susie Sandager.
