Abandoned at the age of four to wander the war-torn Korean countryside, Stephanie Fast has a remarkable story of survival.

She was persecuted and tortured because of her bi-racial ethnicity.

Abused on the city streets and finally discarded and left to die in a garbage dump, Stephanie was miraculously rescued by a World Vision nurse.A

few years later, a childless missionary couple visited a World Vision orphanage and met Stephanie, who was covered with boils and dirt, lice infected, worm ridden and cross-eyed from malnutrition. Stephanie

was so dead emotionally that she rejected compassionate love. However,

this missionary couple heard God speak to their hearts, "She is the one for you…" The Merwins obeyed and adopted Stephanie. ^[0]
