Zambia will hold it's presidential elections this Tuesday, Sept. 20. The entire city will shut down as Zambians go and vote for one of the 15 or so candidates. It's been interesting to watch lately as different political parties rally around the city chanting party slogans and plastering candidate pictures everywhere. Rupia Banda, the current president, has put up enormous banners above major intersections in the city.
There have already been a few political riots leading up to the elections. We've been advised by the US Embassy not to move around much this week. Please pray that the Lord's hand would be on the nation of Zambia...that they will experience a peacefully election and that the right person will be appointed the the next leader of Zambia.
