We’ve been hearing from Jonah who has been sharing his incredible story of how he came to the United States, escaping the Communist takeover of South Vietnam on a small boat that he and his brother built, with 17 others on board. Jonah tells how it was for them when they spotted land after drifting in the sea for so many nights and days. Had they finally made it to a place of refuge and freedom?

We’ve been sharing the dramatic story of how 17 people, led by Jonah and his brother, escaped South Vietnam on a tiny homemade boat after the Communist takeover.

His name is Jonah...
