NAIROBI, Kenya, February 23 (Compass Direct News) – Two nuns working in northeast Kenya who were kidnapped last November have been freed and arrived here from Mogadishu, Somalia on Thursday (Feb. 19), but they are still traumatized, sources told Compass.

The woman was one month away from graduating from Bible school along with her daughter. It was the same Bible school where her son, Stanley, had gone before he went to another Indonesian island as a missionary. Stanley was killed for carrying the gospel, but his testimony had prompted many others to go to Bible school and to accept God’s call to share his love.

Please pray for China every day, and especially for those who are serving our great and glorious King the Lord Jesus Christ in China.
