Today is National Women's Day in South Africa. We celebrated by participating in a march in Soweto. This march commemorated the 1956 women's march against pass laws. It felt like we were entering into history. Women need freedom! South Africa is supposedly the rape capital of the world. 2 interesting stats - a woman is raped in South Africa every 26 seconds. And a young girl born in South Africa has a better chance of being raped than learning how to read. But there is hope - keep South Africa in your prayers. And please - appreciate all the wonderful women in your life. I know that I do! Happy Women's Day!
