Remarks by Rev. Pukuta N. Mwanza at the Thanksgiving Church Service of President Michael Chilufya Sata10th November 2014 Your Excellencies, Distinguished invited guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, On behalf of the church fraternity in Zambia, I welcome you who have gathered to join in the send-off service for His Excellency Mr. Michael Chilufya Sata, the 5th President of the Republic of Zambia who passed on in London on 28th October 2014. I am deeply privileged to give you the opening remarks in this Interdenominational Church Service. By calling for this thanksgiving church service, we remember with gratitude his life, his accomplishments, his values and all that he stood for in his entire life and we give thanks to God for those things President Sata did to contribute towards making Zambia a better place in which to live. Death is a painful reality on this side of eternity and it robs us of people that are so dear to us. Unfortunately we cannot stop it but only prepare for it by living in obedience to God’s will. Allow me to quote the wishes made by Alexander the Great. (Refer to the attachment). Press Release on the State of the Nation
4th November 2014 When the news of the passing of President Sata was announced on 29th October 2014 by the Secretary to the Cabinet, a sombre mood swept through every corner of the country with scores of people sharing the sad news on their social media networks and many still got glued to the radio and television sets to get additional information regarding the demise of the Head of State. The news of death is often received with mixed reactions ranging from sadness, fear, anxiety, worry and uncertainty. The reflection on the life of the deceased brings back either fondest memories or some of the most painful realities. The good memories affect some people so much because of the fact that such people will not be seen again on this side of eternity. They are gone. |
