Mozambique Pastor Dies While On A 40-day Fast

A pastor, Francisco Barajah has died in Mozambique after allegedly attempting a 40-day fast as depicted in the Bible.

BBC reported that the cleric was confirmed dead on Wednesday.

Barajah is the founder of one Santa Trindade Evangelical Church in the central province of Manica.

The pastor was admitted to a medical facility in Beira, Sofala Province after he was found in a “critical condition”.

At the time when he was hospitalised, it was said that the clergyman had already fasted for 25 days.

It was also reported that Barajah had lost so much weight that he couldn’t walk.

Barajah, it is understood, passed away after the effort to save his life proved abortive.
