  Richard Wiener lived under the Nazi regime from 1933 to 1939 and was the only Jewish student 
in a school of Hitler Youths.  He watched as his home was destroyed and his father was taken away to concentration camp.   
After the fall of the Berlin Wall, he returned to his hometown Wittenberg for a class reunion, initiated a healing experience 
with his ex-classmates, and later became an honorary citizen of the town.   On his return to the U. S., he created a workshop 
called The Power of Forgiveness,  to demonstrate that it is possible to revisit even the most painful life issues. 
 In his talk, Richard will recount his story and his learnings to share with others. The presentation will be followed 
by discussion and questions. For more info, contact Darrin Gray at 850-5233 or darrin@brandirect.com
