The Orthodox Christians of Nigeria

For years, a man named Stephen Tema, together with hundreds of others whom he converted to Orthodox Christianity, waited for a Hierarch to come to Nigeria to Baptize the Faithful and to Ordain clergymen for them. In the meantime, Stephen was arrested, beaten, and rejected by nearly all of his friends and family for preaching Orthodox Christianity. He continued to pray for a Hierarch to come, until one day—against all odds—his prayer was answered.
