Stephen and Ruth Ziraba had a difficult marriage relationship. Ruth had problems with demons, [came] came from a family that was demonized, [and] was chosen to be the next witch doctor in her family. She was so tormented that she took a chance and went to a pastor for help. He prayed with her. She was born again and set free.
But Stephen was not happy that Ruth was now a believer in Christ. He took another wife and sent Ruth back to live with her parents. The parents were also angry when they found out she was a Christ follower. Their demons stopped being effective when Ruth was around.
The church and pastor took her in—she lived with them for four years. During this time, they twice tried to find someone for her to marry. Each time she told them she would first ask God what his will was. God told her to wait for Stephen. She began praying for him.
Ruth and Stephen are now happily married with six children. They are both pastors of Bugeri Wesleyan Church in Uganda. They have planted two churches and have a vision of planting five more in 2017.
