Jul. 03, 2014 | Uganda Pray for Susan Ithungu and Her Testimony Susan Ithungu was 13 years old in 2009 when she accepted Christ. The Ugandan teen stood up for her faith even though her father beat her and locked her in a room for six months with little food or water. She weighed just 45 pounds when she was rescued, and it has taken time for her to recover physically and emotionally. Susan is now thriving in her new boarding school and is in good health and spirits. She clings to her faith in Jesus, has hope for her future and shares her faith with classmates and peers. Her guardian, Dedra Biira, is doing well in her business and is able to help provide for Susan as well as her other children.

Within a year of being called to the area, which is known for violence, the pastor had gained the respect of many in the town and had seen 10 people come to Christ. Soon, however, he began to face persecution by those opposed to his work. The pastor persevered through many difficulties, and a new believer recently contributed a large sum of money to help him continue his work in the church, which now has 150 members. Although the church faces great opposition, the pastor hopes to see it grow to 500 members. He said he has seen the love of Jesus transform the worst of offenders.

In addition, they have been fined the equivalent of nearly $3,000, which they are paying in order to continue their ministry work and to avoid multiple court hearings. If convicted of blasphemy, they could face up to 14 years in prison. Many of the pastors have been persecuted by their families and continue to face pressure in the largely Muslim areas where they work.
