Kenya’s Christians reel from attack
(The Christian Science Monitor) “We have to sing this song with a happy voice,” George Owino urged the dozen or so worshipers gathered for Easter service, just days after al-Shabaab militants killed 147 people, mostly Christians, on a university campus in Garissa, Kenya.
The congregation raised their voices as they sang, “Oh happy day, when Jesus washed our sins away.”
But when Owino stood up in his crisp white robe before the mostly empty pews and spoke about the Christian students gunned down in the dining hall, where they had gathered for morning prayers, his voice and composure broke.
