Summary

SummaryMy name is Ronald, and in 2015, Islamist terrorists attacked Garissa University, and I was one of the targeted Christian students. I was shot, lost my hearing in one ear, and three of my fingers were amputated. I had dreamed of becoming a teacher, but after the attack, employers refused me teaching positions because of my disabilities. For a long time, I felt lostβ€”unable to control my own life and discouraged by constant rejection. πŸ˜”

Today, I work on my parents’ farm, trying to reconcile myself to this new reality. Yet God has been my strengthβ€”reminding me that He cares for me beyond my brokenness. πŸ™ I’ve come to see that my disability does not define me; instead, it has given me a special connection with God to walk alongside others who also feel unseen or discarded.

Since sharing this story on camera, God has opened a door and given me a teaching job! Thank You, Lord, for this restoration and for every prayer that carried me through the darkest days. I pray that others will see God’s faithfulness in my life and be encouraged to trust Him, no matter their circumstances. 🌟

In 2015, Islamist terrorists attacked Garissa University in Kenya, leaving 148 people dead. Many victims were, like Ronald, Christian students who were singled out by the gunmen. Ronald shares some of the difficulties he has encountered since the attack.
