Sisters who became Christians Starved
By Joseph DeCaro, Worthy News Correspondent
KAMPALA (Worthy News)-- After two Muslim sisters in Uganda left Mohammad for Christ, their uncle beat them and locked them in a room without food for days, according to Morning Star News.
Nabagabana Fatuma, 14, and her sister Namwase Aisha, 16, required medical care after their Muslim uncle abused them at their home in Nasenye village. The uncle had taken custody of the sisters after the death of their divorced father five years ago.
The sisters had attended a worship service at a local church where its pastor prayed for them to become Christians. But when the pair returned home and told their uncle what happened, he sequestered them both and then made arrangements for them to be taken to an Islamist group for re-indoctrination. But while he was away, the pair were freed and taken to a "safe house".
Praying for our brothers and sisters abroad, they suffer so much for Christ
