Latest Update:
The fighting in Magwi has ended for now! Pastor Moses said “There are no
arrows or gunfire in the bushes now!” The UN Peacekeepers came into the area and
put an end to the fighting but the issue of land ownership is going to be a
complicated one to resolve. Everyone that returned after the 20yr war are on
what they believe to be their family plots. There is no title or deeds, only
the word of older relatives. Many more people have lost their lives and many
families are homeless because their Tokuls (huts) have been burnt to the
ground. Women and children are flooding into Pageri town to find safety. Pastor
Moses is scrambling to find food, blankets and places for these people to live until
they can return home. Please keep these people in your prayers!
