Beaten, Burned, but Not Broken
Source excerpt
Kenya (International Christian Concern) — In December 2023, the peaceful village of Witho in Lamu County, Kenya, was shattered by the sound of gunfire. Somali-based al-Shabab militants stormed the town under the cover of darkness, targeting Christians. Families who had gone to bed in peace awoke to screams, flames, and terror. Among the victims was Peter Munyao, a 44-year-old farmer, father, and devoted Christian. His life would never be the same again. “The attack came without warning,” Munyao recalled. “Around 8 p.m., gunfire shattered the calm as al-Shabab militants stormed our village.
