Persecution remains a persistent reality in South Central Ethiopia, where those who convert to Christianity face opposition, social rejection, and significant personal risk. In this region, the gospel is gradually taking root in a challenging spiritual environment through the dedicated ministry of Konjo Midekso, a mother of four who faces ongoing insecurity and pressure because of her faith in Christ. Midekso is paying a heavy price for her faith. Since coming to Christ, she has served as a church planter, leading five new believers to baptism. But her faithfulness has drawn increasing hostility.
