Musings of a Recovering Lutheran: Update on Asia Bibi
I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, 

Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?

Then said I, Here am I; send me.

Update on Asia Bibi



There are new reports that Asia Bibi is suffering from major health problems.

Key quote:

Asia is also on death row and awaiting the death sentence that she has been given. She has not only suffered emotionally, and had to deal with the unknown regarding her case, as she has gone before court proceedings and had court dates canceled numerous times, but she has also suffered physical beatings as well. The latest report concerning Asia’s health is that she is now suffering from intestinal bleeding and she requires medical treatment. Unfortunately, she hasn’t been able to receive proper medical treatment and her lawyers are working on getting her help.

Read Asia Bibi's own words.

The online petition calling for mercy for Asia Bibi can still be found here.

For those who do not know who she is, here is the story about Asia Bibi's unjust imprisonment and death sentence for "blasphemy" against the Prophet Muhammad.

Please pray for Asia Bibi and her family. Also, please pray for those who are risking their lives to free her.
