        It was reported in early April that a young
 girl who was employed in Palmelkh, Saudi
 Arabia,  had  her  mouth  and  left  eye  sewn
 shut after she was heard to say: ‘Jesus Christ,
 peace be upon him, is a personal Saviour’.
Officials at her work were angered by what she said and ordered the punishment to stop
 her from expressing her love for Christ Jesus.
