Pastor Ruth – “Preaching Through the Pain”
Ruth was a fiery preacher. She loved to minister, but behind closed doors, she carried a heavy burden—infertility. After every sermon, someone would ask:
“Ana hubiri nini na hana watoto?”
(English: “What can she preach when she has no children?”)
Some church members even whispered that she was cursed. Yet, Ruth did not stop preaching. She also began mentoring young couples and teaching teenagers about purity and responsibility.
Years later, many came back to thank her: “Because of you, I stayed in school. Because of you, our marriage survived.”
Though Ruth never had a biological child, she birthed leaders, marriages, and futures.
