Each year on April 15, the people of Israel stop to observe Yom Hashoah, a day of remembrance for the six million Jews lost to the Holocaust. On April 15, 2015, the newly opened Friends of Zion Heritage Center in Jerusalem joined together with over 1,000 churches worldwide to present LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS, a half hour television special commemorating those souls lost to the Nazi genocide. Produced by Legacy Worldwide, this special celebrated and honored Christians throughout history who placed themselves in the line of danger to save the lives of their Jewish brothers and sisters.
