The horrific murder of 147 Christian students by Somali Islamist terror group al-Shabaab gunmen at the university in Garissa, Kenya, on April 2 shocked the world. Witnesses report that they
released Muslim students, and took Christians. ‘If you were a Christian you were shot on the spot,’ said one student. The Islamic extremists even targeted a site where the college’s Christian
Union had gone for early morning prayer. ‘They killed all my Christian Union friends,’ student Kenneth Luzakula, said. ‘I was praying with them when we heard gun shots and two guys who
wore hoods and carried long guns came in. I escaped because I was standing next to the rear door, so I dashed out with one other friend. I could hear my friends still praying loudly and calling the name of Jesus Christ… They killed my friends but I know they are all in heaven. They died worshipping God.’

PRAISE God that these Christian students were faithful to the end.
PRAY that their blood may be the seed of salvation for many, even among the killers.
