Bombing Survivor Now in Medical Crisis

[10] prayers in [2] nations have been posted for Sister M.

The survivor of a 2013 church bombing has been hospitalized after medical complications. On Sunday, Sept. 22, 2013, two suicide bombers entered the All Saints Church in Peshawar, Pakistan, and detonated their devices, killing 127 people and injuring more than 250. One survivor was a 3-year-old girl known as Sister M. Her father was killed in the explosions, and she suffered serious burns. After the bombing, the global body of Christ helped her family with housing and other needs, including multiple surgeries and skin grafts for Sister M. Now 17 years old, she was admitted to a hospital after experiencing a medical crisis and is in poor health. Sister M once told a front-line worker that she hopes someday to become a pediatrician, but the impact of trauma and the loss of her father have continued to affect her physical and emotional health.
