The Hidden Pain: A Stolen Innocence

Raised in the sweltering savannas of Zimbabwe, Thando leads a typical life for a middle-class African girl. She attends school and church. She loves American television shows and American music. Thando lives in a happy household with a wonderful family, and has never wanted for love. But Thando holds a dark secret in her heart. For most of her life, God has hidden away these memories, locked them inside her until the day she was strong enough to bear them again... A true story of loss and hardship, of hope and rebirth. After years of abuse at the hands of men she should have been able to trust, Thando uses her bleak history to bring hope and healing to others.
