| Peter Loth, who is on the Eldred World War II Museums Board of Directors, is an author and popular international speaker who carries a message of forgiveness and reconciliation between nations, cultures, families, and individuals. He has appeared on television and radio teaching about the Holocaust and sharing his story of forgiveness. Peter grew up in post WWII Poland, knowing very little about his past. As an adult, even the few details he thought he understood about his life began to unravel. With the help of the American Red Cross, Peter discovered a piece of his past that would change everything; he had been in Stutthof Concentration Camp. Peter begins his testimony by sharing photographs and factual information about the Holocaust. He weaves his story into that background by taking us on a painful journey back to his childhood full of abuse, loneliness and hatred. He tells of going back to his birthplace 60 years later to what is now the Stutthof Museum, where he wrestled with his anger and bitterness until God broke in. There, Peter learned how to give and receive forgiveness, which transformed his life and brought him the peace for which he had been searching. Peter has recently written his story with Sandra Kellogg Rath in the published book, Peace by Piece, a Story of Survival and Forgiveness, a compelling a memoir which allows the reader to walk along with Peter, allowing us to see his life through his eyes. |
