The coming of freedom, of expression and religious liberty to the former Soviet Union and the countries of East Central Europe was a miraculous process, comparable to the deliverance of ancient Israel from Egyptian bondage and Babylonian captivity in biblical times. As this momentous unshackling of the soul was occurrring, many of the people of the USSR experienced a spiritual awareness in which they became active religious seekers for the first time in their lives. Written by the first mission president in the Ukraine, The Morning Breaks is the thrilling story of the spiritual odyssey experienced by the new Latter-day Saints in some of the successor states of the former Soviet Union. Author Howard Biddulph describes what has occurred and continues to occur in that unlikely part of the world. The saga is a great, modern-day spiritual epic, and the events constitute compelling evidence of the truthfulness of the gospel, the fulfillment of prophecy, and the reality of the Restoration.
