Unspeakable is the story of young boy who survive Sudanese Civil war and its Calamities such as Starvation, violence, wild animals, sickness, thirst, and diseases. Some of my experiences you will read about include my life before and during the years that civil war devastated my village, and how hard it was being on my own at a young age. It reveals how God’s invisible plans can accomplish great things in our lives, which we only realize in hindsight. It is also about the providence of God in my rescue and resettlement in the United States of America in 2001. I want to share my story to provide hope for other young people caught in desperate circumstances.
