Looking back over the course of our lives, many of
us wonder about how the trials and triumphs of life have shaped us into who we
are today.  Could there be a God at
work providentially moving through the events of our lives to bring us to a
greater understanding of Him? 
Yes!  This is what Willi
Schakat came to realize.
 
In “A Home to Call My Own”, Willi recounts his own
personal story of survival during World War II, to a new life in America.  From his humble birth in the village of
Stonischken in East Prusssia, to the shores of New York City, Willi tells of
his journey as a refugee fleeing the Russian advance as a six year-old, with no
parents, but with two sisters, an aunt, and his grandmother.  Leaving his home and travelling across
war-torn Europe for over three years, the hand of God protected him and later
guided his life across the Atlantic. 
 
It was in America where God revealed His plan to
show him a new kind of home, one that he could truly call his own.  As the reader follows his life, one
can’t help but wonder how God is writing their own story.  For we are all refugees, each looking
for “A Home to Call My Own”.
 
Willi G. Schakat currently resides in Cincinnati,
Ohio with his wife Audrey.
