SMALL ARMS AND LIGHT WEAPONS

All state-owned firearms in the Great Lakes and Horn of Africa region are to be marked with serial numbers and country codes, according to a renewed agreement made by states last week at a meeting organised by RECSA (Regional Centre for Small Arms and Light Weapons in the Great Lakes Region, the Horn of Africa and Bordering States). The markings will be added at the point of manufacture, import or transfer. This information will then be entered into a national database. National Focal Point Coordinators from each of the 12 states were instructed in the marking process, stockpile management and database creation during the meeting.

Message of His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI

Dear brothers and sisters,

1. For the World Day of Prayer for Vocations, to be celebrated on 13 April 2008, I have chosen the theme: Vocations at the service of the Church on mission. The Risen Jesus gave to the Apostles this command: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Mt 28:19), assuring them: “I am with you always, to the close of the age” (Mt 28: 20).
