Susan Ithungu was 13 years old in 2009 when she accepted Christ. The Ugandan teen stood up for her faith even though her father beat her and locked her in a room for six months with little food or water. She weighed just 45 pounds when she was rescued, and it has taken time for her to recover physically and emotionally. Susan is now thriving in her new boarding school and is in good health and spirits. She clings to her faith in Jesus, has hope for her future and shares her faith with classmates and peers. Her guardian, Dedra Biira, is doing well in her business and is able to help provide for Susan as well as her other children.
