Touching story of communion and street kids in Nairobi
August 2nd, 2008 • Africa, Religion
Uwem Akpan has had a series of stories published in the New Yorker, all of the much worth a read. This one on a couple of street kids and communion, real stood out for me. Fear gripped my heart—fear that some churchwarden would be incensed by their sacrilege and, as in the church of my youth, drag them outside by the ear; fear that the priest would deny them at the last moment; fear that I might never risk as much for the Body of Christ.
