My Country Wept: One Man’s Incredible Story of Finding Faith, Hope and Forgiveness in the Burundian Civil War

One man’s amazing story of how God protected and provided for him in the midst of the Burundian civil war and brought him to a place of grace, forgiveness and restoration.

Theodore Mbazumutima was forced to flee from his native Burundi when tensions between Hutus and Tutsis escalated. Theo’s dangerous and incredible journey fleeing civil war is an amazing testimony of God’s miraculous intervention, protection and guidance.

Despite experiencing suffering first hand, God has brought Theo to such a place of forgiveness that he is now a peace-worker bringing reconciliation to the Burundian people.

My Country Wept reminds us that when we submit to God’s plan for our lives, he can rescue us from any circumstances and work in every situation.
