Singing, clapping and standing ovation as forum closes

Laughter, singing, cheering, clapping and a standing ovation marked the mood at the closure of the fifth ABLI conference in Malawi today. Delegates from 20 countries across Africa joined in praise and prayer, before heading home. A standing ovation was reserved for a young man who recited the whole of the book of James, so movingly, that there was a rapt silence in the conference hall.
