Operation Jonah

Elisabeth Miller first dreamed of caring for African orphans when she was nine years old. After finishing school, working for two years with the Salvation Army, and volunteering in refugee camps in Hong Kong and Thailand, Elisabeths dream came true. From 1985 to 2008 she worked and lived as a missionary in Africa. She has traveled through minefields, lived in the midst of civil unrest, and found herself on the wrong end of a gun barrel three times. When the adopted child of her missionary friends was kidnapped, Elisabeth used her experience documenting and photographing Youth With A Mission missionaries experiences to document the event.

"Operation Jonah" is a fictionalized account of the true story of one childs abduction and the community that mobilized to find him and bring him home. Surrounded by escalating violence in Africa, Bible translators Scott and Debra Warringtons worst fears are realized when their 14-month-old adopted son, Dominic, is snatched from their arms. The story makes international headlines, draws attention from heads of states, and sends shockwaves through the Warringtons multi-racial community of friends. Outraged, ordinary people rally together and find themselves pitted against extraordinary opposition: an international crime syndicate, an impotent police force, corrupt officials, and a bitter biological father.
