The_Hidding_Place

The Hidding Place Corrie Ten Boom was born on April 15, 1892. She lived a very peaceful life, with her loving family. Her father, Casper Ten Boom was a wonderful, God-fearing man. He was willing to do anything to help people. The Ten Boom family lived at a place called “The Beje” where Casper owned a clock shop. Corrie was always taught to love people with Christ’s love, and accept them no matter what. Corrie started Holland’s first club for girls called “The Triangle Club”. She taught about Christ, and showed the girls His love, and how to spread it. The club started out small, but grew to be very large. The word hate was not in the Ten Boom’s vocabulary. When people began to shun the Jews, the Ten Booms befriended them. When the war began, Casper took anyone into his home that needed it. When the Jews were forced to wear a yellow Star of David patch on their arms, Casper was in line to get one for himself. He said “It would be an honor to wear the same symbol that God’s chosen people are wearing”. hiding, place, corrie, ten, people, love, one, never, boom, safe, out, boom’s, betsie, after, war, very, started, prison, house, help, god, died, day, casper, called, booms, world, took, night, man, lord, later, keep, god’s, find, family, everyone
