LaWA Journey of Faith - This article can be found in Life and Work, September edition, the magazine of the Church of Scoland. It is an interview with Lynley Smith, author of a new book "From Matron to Martyr" | One Woman's Ultimate Sacrifice for the Jews. <L@W>

That woman was Jane Haining, a Scot from Dumfriesshirewho died in Auschwitz 70 years ago this year. Writer and broadcaster, Sally Magnusson presents a new Documentary to be screened on BBC Scotland on Sunday 30 November 14. Sally builds up a picture of a quiet, self-effacing missionary who provided her young charges with love and security in an increasing and hate filled world. With moving tributes from some of Jane's former pupils.
