By Sharon Bruneel

AS EVER YOURS is the true story of Camiel Bruneel who was born in Elverdinge, West Flanders, Belgium in 1881. Although his father and his ancestors were poor farmers, Camiel caught the eye of a wealthy wood-carver's daughter. They eventually married and had five children. They were living a fairytale life when Camiel's world was turned upside down. World War I started and his farm was on the German Front. The family was split up and Camiel and his wife had to keep moving to stay out of the reach of the fighting and shelling.Toward the end of the war, with the tender mercies of God, Camiel and his five children crossed the dangerous Atlantic Ocean to the United States. Without knowing the language or the customs, they traveled across the country by train and settled in the small town of Eagle, Idaho.Even with the challenges of a new land and the struggles of a growing family, Camiel grew to love his adopted home. His courage in the face of setbacks, family tragedies, and extreme danger left a legacy and an example of faith for his posterity.
