Nelson Mandela, who today turns 95, is a man of honor, courage, and empowerment. His work to end apartheid not only helped South Africans for the past several decades, but will also impact future generations in Africa and around the world. In 2009 the United Nations made July 18th Mandela Day “to inspire individuals to take action to help change the world for the better”.

How does Nelson Mandela’s work for humanity inspire you? What is your prayer for South Africa’s future?
