She was put in a mass grave with her slaughtered family only to find herself still alive and conscious. She eventually climbed out of the pit covered in filth and blood. Frida will never forget her traumas, but the healing God has brought is miraculous! Today this young woman has an important message for the world.
This book tells the true, dramatic story of life amid the horror of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, but more importantly how Frida's life was utterly transformed by the power to forgive and love her enemies. Despite great adversity, the message is one of immense hope and personal deliverance.
"I am aware of many of the extraordinary and courageous stories which have emerged from the Rwandan genocide. But it would seem to me that the story of Frida pretty much caps anything I have ever heard. Like something out of the Book of Acts, her story will inspire you, overwhelm you, choke you up and challenge you to your boots. This is truly a miracle story of courage, faith and a forgiveness which is not just superhuman but supernatural. Even as the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church, so the testimony of believers such as Frida who have marched through the fires of unspeakable trials, and come out triumphant."
