Community Grieves Teenage Christian’s Death
Source excerpt
The death of a Christian teenager has left a void in Mwingi, Kenya. During a recent evening in the Nguni area, Somali gunmen moving through grazing routes along local farmland shot 14-year-old James Mutemi, killing him. Another local escaped with injuries. News of Mutemi’s death spread quickly throughout the community. Church members and local community leaders have pledged their support to the family. “No parent should go through this,” a church leader said, “We are standing with the mother through her pain in prayer and support.” The atmosphere at Kathungu Primary School, which Mutemi attended, has since changed.
