A mysterious disease that left me bedridden for three years attacked me. My skin was peeling and I had a bubbling sore in my head that oozed fetid pus.My parents also took me to witch doctors but no luck there. Finally they took me home and I lay on a bed waiting for my death. But one night, Muhando recalls, as her parents sat in front of their grass-covered house, probably contemplating their fate, a bright light filled their home. I saw a bright light. Then a white-clad hand with a scar in the palm rose out of the light and touched my wound. Then a soft voice radiating authority said, “I am Jesus. i healed you wake up and serve me «The light disappeared. Muhando says she ran to her parents and screamed, “I’m healed, I’m healed”. They were amazed. I haven’t gotten out of bed in three years. “
