8/19: Mourning the loss of life - Zambia

Quick word from me - if you haven't heard the news....

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7570285.stm

The President of Zambia died earlier today. There is a 7 day mourning period in Zambia. While the President had his critics, he was also heralded by many in Africa for speaking the truth against Mugabe. After 2 months of battling the effects of a stroke, the President passed away.

Please be in prayer as the Zambian mourn this loss to their country.

All the best,
Ryan
