The Sacrament: A True Story of Survival

On the morning of May 5, 1979, a small single-engine plane with four people on board flew out of Estevan, Saskatchewan. That afternoon, on the last leg of its journey to Boise, Idaho, the plane crashed in a blind mountain canyon. There were two survivors — Donna Johnson, a pretty, blonde seventeen-year-old, and her brother-in-law, Brent Dyer.

The odds were high against their getting out alive. Both Brent and Donna were seriously injured and in pain. they were stranded in a remote region in sub-zero weather with summer-weight clothes, little food and no source of heat. And as the days passed, they had to face the terrifying realization that no one was coming to rescue them.

This is the true story of Donna Johnson's and Brent Dyer's fight to live. It is the story of their communion, with each other and with their God and of their fierce struggle not to abandon hope... as the dark closed in and the cold became too much to endure.
