New Confessors is a translation of book compiled by Archimandrite Damascene. It concerns the lives of those who suffered under Communism -- subjected to sudden arrests, interrogation, beatings, and unimaginable torture. Those who courageously maintained the dignity of faith and hope in God serve as a model of endurance and perseverance. Those who failed teach us what shortcomings we must overcome if we want our faith in God to be real. This book contains the most recent declassified information from KGB, NKVD, and other secret government files. It is the first in a projected series.
