from Virginia
Yesterday we experienced one of the greatest single events of violence in the United States on the Virginia Tech campus, here in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Many of us know one of the victims, or have a friend who lost someone. In the midst of this tragedy, as the nation has turned its focus toward Blacksburg, Virginia, we are reminded that life is precious. It is a gift from God to be appreciated each and every day. As we pray for our friends and family in Blacksburg and across the country, we do not want to lose focus on the International Day of Prayer for Zimbabwe tomorrow. It is a sad time here in Virginia. It continues to be a sad time in Zimbabwe. As we join together in prayer tomorrow, may we turn our hearts as one toward God.
Psalm 118:1: Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithfull love endures forever.

from Auckland
A group of us at Northwest Baptist Church in Auckland, are starting the day of prayer for Zimbabwe, tomorrow, at 6 am NZtime——so, if west coast USA finishes off the day of prayer, we should get in a 36 hour day!!! Isn’t that cool.
Friends in Zimbabwe are so encouraged and excited by this time of prayer—they often feel that the rest of the world has forgotten about them.
God bless,
Alice

the needs…
The crisis in Zimbabwe has escalated to an unimaginable point. We MUST do something to help the victims of this humanitarian travesty.
- : UNICEF is reporting that almost 1 in 4 children are now AIDS orphans.
- : The inflation rate is estimated at around 1200 percent.
- : Unemployment is over 80 percent, forcing citizens to desperate measures such as illegal mining.
- : Controversial land reform and forced eviction programs have left thousands of people homeless, displaced, or dead.
- : Food shortages are a growing problem.
- : Medicine is in short supply, hospitals are in crisis, and now doctors have been on strike for the past two months. Average life expectancy has dropped to a meager 36 years.
- : Laws restricting humanitarian organizations are keeping much-needed assistance from the people.
- : President Robert Mugabe was named the world’s 4th worst dictator by Parade Magazine. Political corruption and governmental abuses are rampant.
- : Economist ranked Zimbabwe as dead last internationally in quality of life.
