Husband Abuses Wife, Daughters for Following Christ

[151] prayers in [9] nations have been posted for Omina.

Omina was raised a Muslim, but when she started visiting a local church, she began to experience God’s love and care in a way she had never known before. She and her two daughters eventually became followers of Christ. But when her Muslim husband learned of their newfound faith, he threatened them and tried to force them to return to Islam. After they refused, he mocked them, beat them and withheld food from them. He even threatened to kill them if they did not renounce Christ. Finally, he kicked them out of the house. Omina sought help from the police, but authorities in the area are also Muslims and supported her husband instead.
