Zimbabwe is facing serious humanitarian crisis. Widespread violence has erupted in Zimbabwe after 29 March 2008 presidential elections. Robert Mugabe (ZANU PF government) has lost presidential elections to MDC candidate, Morgan Tsvangirai. Mugabe has vowed not to abandon power. ZANU PF government militias and military police are beating up innocent people, burning houses and raping women. People are being are accused of voting for the opposition MDC, so far many people have been murdered and more than 3000 have been displaced by this state violence.
This situation is deteriorating into a genocide since Zimbabweans don't have guns to defend their wives, children and property.
Urgently pray for safety of people in Zimbabwe, Write or call your civil leaders urging them to put pressure on Zimbabwe to stop violence, murder and torture of opposition supporters. Zimbabwe desperately needs your support. Our Brothers and Sisters are dying.

Zimbabwean churches warn country faces 'genocide'
Harare (ENI). Church leaders in Zimbabwe have called on the United Nations and African regional groupings to step in to stem the violence that has been reported following disputed elections, and have warned that without intervention the country will witness genocide. "People are being abducted, tortured and humiliated by being asked to repeat slogans of political parties they are alleged not to support," the church heads, drawn from the Zimbabwe Council of Churches, the Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops' Conference and the Evangelical Fellowship of Zimbabwe, said in a joint statement.

A desperate cry from the hearts of Zimbabwe screams across the world.
It calls upon all Christians of every denomination in every nation to
focus their prayers, in churches, halls, homes or elsewhere, on Sunday 27th

teetering on the brink of human disaster.
Let the cry for help touch your heart and mind. Let it move you to do
what you can immediately to ensure this DAY OF PRAYER takes place in your country and neighborhood.
Please pass on this message right now to all the churches and Christian
organisations known to you and to the media as well as to everyone
anxious to rescue Zimbabwe from violence, the concealing and juggling of election results, deceit, oppression and corruption, and to bring about
righteousness, joy, peace, compassion, honesty, justice, democracy and
freedom from fear and want.
May a continual strong stream of prayer and supplication flow up to the
Lord On behalf of all the people on this DAY OF PRAYER, exhorting His divine intervention throughout the nation.
"It is by making the truth publicly known that we recommend ourselves to
the
honest judgment of mankind in the sight of God." (2 Corinthians 4:2)
