Interview on CBN
Dear Friend,
Welcome to my website where I promote things that are important to me. After years of studying topics, such as the Holocaust and antisemitism, hope is what remains. Hope comes to us from action we take to help others, but also from the promises of the Bible. This despite the fact that the world is in a crisis already for years.
For over ten years I had the honor to serve at Yad Vashem, The World Holocaust Remembrance Center in Jerusalem, Israel. In my role, I introduced many people to the world of hatred and Genocide. In addition to persisting antisemitism and racism, it is now clear that Christians too are increasingly a target of hatred. From 2018 on, persecution of Christians has been a major concern. It is also a fact that there is something in the human heart that wants to be the same like everyone else.
One project I am currently involved in is the Holocaust Garden of Hope in Texas, USA. The Garden will present the story of the Holocaust through individual choices in a time of such crisis. Garden is an appropriate theme considering that God created Garden at the very beginning.
Ultimately, God is the source of all hope, but He chooses to act through human-beings. That is why I invite you to join me and many others in our Journey of Hope.
Blessings,
Susanna

ENDORSEMENTS
As we journey through life we have the privilege and joy, once in a while, of meeting some remarkable people who, because of their humility and love for the God of the Bible, are quite unique and who by their gifts and calling are a huge blessing to the Body of Christ. Susanna Kokkonen is such a person. She is a highly qualified scholar, an accomplished linguist and a dedicated professional operative.
Her work at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem over the past ten years has been recognized and highly esteemed by people all over the world. Most of all, however, it is her Christian character that gives her credibility, power and influence everywhere she goes. Knowing her is a joy and a source of enrichment for one's own life.
May I express my gratitude for the work that you have accomplish in reaching out to great variety of people and organizations in an effort to reach out a cooperation across religious and racial barriers.
The fruits of your work accomplished marvelous results of reaching cooperation and understanding of great variety of people, who before had no understanding of each other.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity of working with you. It enriched my life.
Following years in concentration camp it is my privilege to join forces with people who do such positive work toward uniting the world.
I have sat at several presentations by Dr. Susanna including while hosting her at the annual Nairobi-Jerusalem Summit and have always been captivated by the in-depth and insightful nature of her presentations.
She is a powerful speaker with exquisite sensitivity who effectively articulates valuable information in emotionally compelling ways. I fully endorse Dr. Susanna Kokkonen for your events and activities.
I know many speakers over the years who educate, inspire & motivate but Dr. Susanna Kokkonen takes the audience experience to a whole new level with an encompassing depth of content and insight.
I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. Susanna Kokonnen in different Civil and Christian settings. Her speeches on the Holocaust, Genocide, anti-semitism, and Israel today have influenced leaders in many parts of the world.
Her passion for the subject matter is
infectious. In less than one hour, attendees gain a fresh perspective on the major issues.
In sum, it is my pleasure to give Dr. Susanna Kokkonen my highest recommendation as a
keynote speaker. She will deliver valuable information and analysis in an inspiring
and motivating manner.
