South Africans pray for ailing Mandela

Prayers have been said in churches across South Africa for former President Nelson Mandela, who is spending a second day in hospital for treatment for a lung infection, BBC reports.
The presidency has... so far provided no update on his condition although further details are expected later.
 

His condition on Saturday was described as serious but stable.
 

Mr. Mandela, 94, had been ill for some days before being taken to a Pretoria hospital early on Saturday.
 

It is the third time this year he has been admitted to hospital. Hundreds of worshippers attended Mass on Sunday at Soweto’s Regina Mundi church, famous for its role in the anti-apartheid campaign.
“I think it’s just a natural experience that everybody wants to hold on to him as much as possible,” acting priest Father Sebastian Rossouw said.
