Her Very Good Friend

Blessing Andrawus was heartbroken when she learned that her father had been shot to death by militant Fulani Muslims while conducting an evangelistic outreach in a neighboring Nigerian village. The 22-year-old considered him not only a good dad but also “a very good friend.” None of her friends seemed to understand her pain, but over time she found comfort and healing through her faith in Christ. “I have a friend,” she said, “a very good friend, and that’s Jesus. He’s the only shoulder I can cry on. He will never disappoint me.”

Militant Fulani Muslims in Nigeria often target Christians’ homes. They burned Ta’azia’s home (pictured) when they attacked her village. Ta’azia has been able to stay in her burned home, but thousands of others have been forced to take refuge in camps designated for internally displaced people.

You can help Christians like Ta’azia when they are driven from their homes because of their faith in Christ. Your gift will be used to provide basic necessities like blankets, shelter, soap, medical supplies, food and Bibles.
