Referendum

So this weekend is going to be a historic day in Sudan, as the referendum is finally here and the people of South Sudan will be voting whether or not the south will become independent from the north. Some people are optimistic about peaceful outcomes, others say that history often repeats itself, and Sudan has a violent past.

Please pray for the people of South Sudan, for the orphans and workers at Harvesters, and of course for Mary. Harvesters is so far south, that hopefully if violence were to break out, it wouldn't spread that far down the country, or at the very least, everyone would have time to get out of harm's way.

Here's Mary's blog link.. check out what she wrote about the history of Sudan, and about the upcoming referendum.
