(uh-KAY-shuh) – In a little town named “Wednesday Market,” there are several groups of women meeting quietly for trauma support–all of them wartime rape victims. Sarah leads three of these groups with another believer, Hannah, who lives in that town. Esther, an older woman in one of the groups, experienced relief when sharing what she’d suffered. Encouraged, she went home and told the stories to Rebecca, her daughter. She encouraged Rebecca to share with her anything from the war that had broken her heart. Rebecca was a young mother with a baby. Weeping, she admitted that her baby wasn’t the child of the neighbor boy. Instead, she’d been raped by three soldiers, the only men that she’d ever been with, so she knew that one of them was the father of her baby. Heartbroken for Rebecca, Esther asked Sarah and Hannah to pray for their family. She hasn’t told her husband that she herself was raped for fear that he might beat or even divorce her. Now there’s the secret of what happened to Rebecca. These types of secrets aren’t unusual. Many Acacia women haven’t reported being attacked due to the same fears. Please pray for Esther’s family and for thousands more.
