This is one of the stories given during the women’s conference. Fatima* was a Muslim who came to accept Christ as her personal Lord and Savior. But her husband is still Muslim he doesn’t allow her to go to the church. She attends any Christian meeting only when her husband is not at home.
She was invited for the women’s conference. She asked her husband’s permission, but he refused. She told him for this conference, I will attend. He didn’t say anything until the day came. The conference day came, and the husband didn’t go to the market. He was staying at home not going to the market to make sure that Fatima has not attended. Then she said to herself, we have been told to pray if we are in difficult situation like this. She prayed asking God to find for her a way to attend the conference. While she was praying, the police arrived looking for her husband because he has bought a stolen non rechargeable motorcycle. So, he has been taken to the police station. Then she has got access to attend the conference. She encouraged her fellow sisters in Christ to pray in all situations. She praised God for answering her prayers!
Let’s pray that God will normalize Fatima’s relationship with her husband.
This is Abibi’s story she was a Muslim and gave her life to Christ. She was with us in Kajo Keji. Her husband professed Christ, but he has gone back to the world. He didn’t go back to Islam, but he went to the world. He used to beat Abibi with a staff like an animal and later he divorced her. He took another wife and divorced her also. He went back to South Sudan and married another lady.
Abibi went back to her mother’s home in M___. She shared the good news of Jesus Christ with her mother and her uncle’s two daughters. She said they have helped me to share the gospel with many people. She said, I have six years since my husband divorced me, and up to to today, he has never helped me with a pound, nor paid school fees for my three kids. But God has provided all our needs with my kids. Her elder brothers wanted to give her a husband, but she said I am now a grown lady I can choose a husband for myself. I am waiting for a true Christian man or I am not going to marry. So, she encouraged Christian ladies not to be married by Muslim men.
