Faith, Love, Laughter: A Henry and Agnes Goertz Family Legacy

Faith, Love, Laughter: A Henry and Agnes Goertz Family Legacy is the story of my grandparents and father’s immigration from South Russia (now Ukraine) to Canada in the early 1900s. ($20)

“The story of the Goertz family is an enjoyable read. It offers readers a glimpse into the lives of Henry K. and Aganetha (Janzen) Goertz, based on Henry’s account of their lives in Ukraine from when they married in 1912 until they immigrated to Canada in the 1920s. The book includes brief but informative snapshots of the violence of the Russian Revolution, the chaos of immigrating to Canada and the hardships of homesteading in Northern Alberta. Aspects of the spiritual lives are interspersed with descriptions of rural actives such as pig butchering and picking wild berries. The book also contains brief accounts of all the Goertz children.”
