The widow of a missionary who was killed in the Autumn said she forgives the man who shot her husband.

Stephanie was riding in a car with her husband Charles Truman Wesco when he was shot in the head during a firefight between separatists and soldiers in Cameroon.

Christ first loved us

Pastor Randy King at a service for Wesco said: ‘Charles definitely loved the people of Cameroon. So do we. We love the Cameroonians … including the person who killed Charles. We love them because Christ first loved us and came to save us from our sins.’
