The devil rules the world through continental arch-demons called Princes. Under these continental spirits and in loyalty to them are regional and national spirits. Under the authority of the continental Prince are National Princes that control Satan's affairs in each nation. The Satanic Prince of Cameroon is that Satanic spirit in charge of Satan's affairs in Cameroon. Thousands of us fasted for many days, drinking only water, and hundreds fasted for 34 days, drinking only water. On the 34th day of the fast, the Satanic Prince of Cameroon was bound, unseated, and overthrown.

Many of the patients at Mother of Mercy walk for days in order to arrive at the hospital's gates. Others are carried by friends, or survive the jarring ride over dirt paths in the back of the rare pickup that exists in the Nuba Mountain region of southern Sudan. Most are victims of the war that has been waged from the air against the people of Nuba by the Sudanese government for years. All Nubans know to seek refuge in a foxhole when they hear the drone of the bombers overhead; and they all know, in the aftermath, is to bring the maimed to Dr. Tom Catena, the only surgeon for thousands of square miles.
