Helping children, many of who are immigrants themselves, Eva and the staff turn educational theory into reality. Eva’s passion and determination, both as a refuge and an educator, make for commanding reading. She fulfilled God’s purpose by helping generations of children, many of whom experienced similar immigration challenges in their own lives. Your’ll be both enlivened and educated by her story.
