History
Russia
The nighttime massacre of 136 innocent Mennonites at Eichenfeld/Dubovka (Novopetrovka) on Oct 26 to 27, 1919, and elsewhere in the Nikolaipole volost during the years 1918-1920, was one of the numerous atrocities of the Russian revolution and civil war. The victims were pacifist men, women and children, neither partisans nor combatants, but peaceful villagers and visiting evangelists. The horror and insecurity of the times did not permit the dead of Eichenfeld to be openly mourned. Unwashed, they were hastily buried in shallow graves before surviving family members and villagers fled into nearby Mennonite villages.

This volume tells the story of the massacre. It includes eyewitness accounts and reminiscences by Mennonites and Ukrainians, as well as an analysis of the origins and roots of the event and reflections on its legacy.

This book contains four stories of survival. The storytellers, two women and two men, believed in a loving God who cared about humankind. Thanks to Stalin's reign of terror they found themselves in many life-threatening circumstances where God appeared not to care. All four persons struggled with doubt, fear and despair. Like Job of old, they questioned God and like him they also affirmed faith.
