Summary:
The year is 1975, and Saigon is about to fall. In an atmosphere marked by terror and confusion, The Van Nguyen (pronounced Tay Van Win) has been charged with evacuating members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from his war-torn country before the long nightmare of death and reeducation camps begins. As President of the Saigon Branch, he knows all too well that a national tragedy is unfolding. Yet, in the midst of horror and suffering, he will witness the hand of God at work. When Faith Endures is a powerful story of faith and compassion forged during a time of crisis, of compassion, caring, and love that flourish in the face of ever-present dangers.
