Escape From Death

The Slaybaugh Story

By Rose Slaybaugh

PREFACE

WE have traveled many thousands of miles-all the way from Los Angeles, California, to Oshawa, Ontario; from Bellingham, Washington, to Key West, Florida, and across to Havana, Cuba-to tell of the wonderful way in which God has worked in our lives.

We've been urged by hundreds of people to put our story into a book, and now the time has come to do so. We do it with the hope that our testimony will greatly glorify our heavenly Father and will build confidence and faith in His goodness and power in the hearts of all who read it. Perhaps this testimony will help some who have become discouraged or careless, and bring them back into the fold of the Good Shepherd.

In this story we would like to tell you how we became Christians after the death of our only child. We want to tell you of the struggles we had, of the opposition of friends and relatives and even the clergy. Anything we write is not done maliciously against anyone personally or against any group of people or denomination. That is not the purpose in telling our story. But we must tell it just as it happened, or it would not be our true experience.
