Persecuting Teenage Christians


            I was sad to be reminded last week of the fact that there are still Christians in this world who are being severely persecuted for their faith.
            Susan Ithungu, a 15-year-old teenage girl in Uganda, recently left her Islamic faith to become a Christian.
            Her father responded in a savage way. He beat Susan and then locked her in a room for six months—barely giving her enough food and water to survive.
            Fortunately for Susan, neighbors alerted the local police who then arrested her father and freed Susan from her confinement. Shortly thereafter, authorities released Susan's father.
            You might say a prayer for Susan. I have a feeling she will be facing more trials and tribulations.
