Goodbye is Not Forever is the true story of Amy who was born in Drushkovka, Ukraine. Her family was torn apart during WWII. They suffered starvation, labor camps, separation from family, and the terror of war time cruelty.
Little Amy Never Knew Her Father
One dark night, when she was only a baby, the Soviet secret police forcefully arrested Amy’s father…and condemned him to the frigid wastelands of Siberia.
Then as World War II began, the armies of the Third Reich invaded her small Russian village. Amy, a tender seven-year-old child, was taken by cattle car to a slave labor camp and witnessed firsthand the horrors of Hitler’s Germany.
As the war ends, Amy and her mother make a daring escape, with execution the likely verdict if they are captured. Over the years, Amy wondered about her father. Was he still alive? Would she ever see him again?
A true story, Goodbye is Not Forever serves as a vivid confirmation of God’s never-ending grace in the lives of His children.

Safe in His Arms
The song was written for Goodbye Is Not Forever. As the KGB forced Fyodor out of his home and escorted him into the dark night, nobody knew where he was going or if they would ever see him again. Safe In His Arms is a song for Fyodor reflecting the prayer of his heart as he headed to an unknown place leaving his beloved family behind.
