The widow of a missionary who was killed in the Autumn said she forgives the man who shot her husband.
Stephanie was riding in a car with her husband Charles Truman Wesco when he was shot in the head during a firefight between separatists and soldiers in Cameroon.
Christ first loved us
Pastor Randy King at a service for Wesco said: ‘Charles definitely loved the people of Cameroon. So do we. We love the Cameroonians … including the person who killed Charles. We love them because Christ first loved us and came to save us from our sins.’
‘We do not know the name of that man. But I pray as a missionary to Cameroon that I or her brother Ben Sinclair might one day have the opportunity to meet Charles’ killer to express our forgiveness to him and in love, seek to lead him to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour that he might also receive God’s forgiveness for what he did.’
‘My prayer is that somehow someway Jesus will be glorified through my precious Charles’ death and that God will not let his death have been in vain. He is receiving the martyr’s crown from his Lord,’ she wrote.
