Raised in a Catholic family, Jennifer always wanted to become a nun. When she found Jesus, though, she found God had other plans for her life. Unhappy she left Catholicism, her family chased her from home. But as Jennifer says, she serves a God who cannot fail her. Her pastor found a sister in the church to take care of the young persecuted girl. Her parents went to court to try to take her away from the sister, finally bribing the judge to hold her in prison. The other prisoners said, “You say you are suffering for Jesus, but why don’t you just deny Him?” After a week she was released for lack of charges.Back at her parents’ home, Jennifer found that they had burned her Bible and other Christian literature and then forbade her to pray. She would hide in the flower bushes to pray. There she heard God reassuring her to keep on praying, telling her “I am with you.”
Knowing God had called her to be a pastor, Jennifer planned to go to Bible school.
To be continued tomorrow…
