Pray for Zimbabwe

This evening at the RFC prayer meeting we were praying for Zimbabwe. Yesterday the country went to the polls seemingly to elect the opposition party Movement for Democratic Change. The problem is that although the MDC wins when the votes are counted in the constituencies they are then taken to a central place to be 'collated', and thats when Mugabe's Zanu-PF party seems to make ground. Pray for the church in Zimbabwe, and for a righteous outcome to the elections.

About a third of the 13 million population is struggling to feed itself, hampered by bad harvests and ineffective government.
