“For two years now. But I am not yet ready to be baptized. I am too afraid of what my family will do to me.” – Yusuf
“Yusuf, may God deliver us from all fears! You are not alone; there are twenty of us online. But I have not been able to reach Madan, the call keeps going to voice mail. Let me try again now…” -Karim
