[edit] Life

• The government has not maintained democratic freedoms nor improved the quality of life for most; many in the government becoming ostentatiously wealthy while half the population live in dire poverty.

• Zambia faces many problems including economic decline and food insecurity. Underlying these problems is the devastation caused by widespread poverty and the HIV/AIDS pandemic. The HIV/AIDS catastrophe has devastated the population. More than 25% of the population have HIV/AIDS, rising to 50% for those in prisons. Hospitals and doctors are poorly equipped to deal with the crisis. Pray for those churches and Christian agencies that are seeking to show the love of Christ to AIDS sufferers.

[edit] Churches

• Churches are growing – people are coming to Christ across all different ages and in towns and cities. Pray that effective discipleship can help them know God more each day and understand all the freedom that God has for them.

• The Evangelical Fellowship of Zambia (EFZ) has become an important focal point of fellowship and cooperative efforts for denominations and agencies. Pray that God may give united vision to Christian leaders as they tackle the daunting problems facing Zambia.

• Pray against the work of witch doctors in Zambia. They are very active in the townships, particularly around the churches.
