Daily Bites of “From Communism to Christ”: Bite#24,Awaiting to Return Home

From Communism to Christ!

PEARL LEONA STURGIS·SUNDAY, JUNE 11, 2017

Introduction by Pearl L. Sturgis:

Written by Richard John Kahler, Second Lieutenant of the International Brigade:

Some time in the 90’s, I, Pearl Sturgis, attended a little church in Airville, Pennsylvania. I met this guy named Richard John Kahler. During our controversy with the church over the newer Bible translations we left the church and started our private Bible Study group in our homes. There were only 5 of us but we had strong convictions that we would not use the newer translations as we were very much attached to our old family Bibles of the Authorized King James Version of 1611. 

This happened around the same time that I discovered the truth about the Protestant Reformers and how in God’s Providence christians were led to America as they fled from religious persecution. The very reason they came to the new world was for freedom of worship.

They pursued the God given right to worship the Lord under the dictates of their own conscience. It was not to worship just any god but to worship the One and Only God and Savior who died for the whole world and to proclaim liberty for all the inhabitants thereof, as the Lord commanded in Leviticus 25:10 which is engraved on our Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to this day (June 2017). 

During our Bible Study Richard (Dick) Kahler gave all 5 of us a copy of his testimony which he had typed by hand and never published. I am so ashamed to say that I stuck this little 18 page booklet away in my book shelf and never read it until today, June 9,2017. There was so much going on at that time (1990’s) as we were building our house and starting our own Landscaping business. Eventually the little Bible Study group broke up and we moved to different churches. 

I heard Dick had died and I was invited to the service. I regret deeply that I did not attend. I never knew much about Dick until today after reading his remarkable testimony. I remember him telling the stories of how he was suppose to kill and bury the victims and instead he hid them. For some odd reason I didn’t have sense enough to pay attention back then. Now I will do the Daily Bits of his AMAZING testimony by submitting word for word the testimony of Lieutenant Richard John Kahler from Red Lion, Pennsylvania......”From Communism to Christ:”

Bite#24,Awaiting to Return Home:

Finally after the Ebro Offensive and the Teruel Offensive they were talking again of repatriating ( arranging to send home) all foreign volunteers. Around November they sent us north to a little town in the Pyrenees Mountains called Olot to await repatriation. There many of us got the first bath in a long time. Then they fumigated the houses in which we stayed to kill all body lice. 

All we had to do was wait for the arrangements to be made to repatriate us. In the meantime we received word that all political prisoners would be released also. I learned that Kopic was staying in a town about 5 miles from Olot so I went to the town to find him. I was going to finish a job the government did not do but when I got there no one knew of Kopic or his whereabouts. 

So again, I was cheated of an opportunity of ridding the world of a snake. On December 1,1938 we turned in all our military equipment. My pistol belonged to me but they told me I would have a hard time taking it out of the country so I gave it to a Spanish friend of mine. They gave each one of us a new suit of clothes so I gave my officer’s uniform away also.
