If you're a carefree teenager, the last thing you expect is to be forced to marry a stranger and change your religion. But if you are a Christian girl living in Pakistan, this could happen to you.

A prejudice against Christians, tight Pakistani blasphemy laws and a lack of justice for the poor results in abductions, forced marriages, alleged conversions to Islam and abuse and suffering for young women today.

Through extensive research and a sensitive interviewing style, Anna Townsend shares both the stories of activists who are trying to help and the women and their families who are affected. Anna also highlights the plight of western women at risk of being sent to Pakistan for marriage and encourages the church to be more alert to the issue in their local community.

Our Sisters helps you to learn more about the plight of these women, inspires you to pray with compassion, challenges you to champion the cause to help end forced marriage and empowers you to work for justice so others can flourish.

Anna Townsend is the founder of Women Without Roofs, a charity supporting women in Nepal that face hardship. Whilst living in Nepal Anna served among the Pakistani Christian refugee community.
