This week all of Ireland has been shocked at the murder of Rudo Mawere, a young Malawian woman whose body was found abandoned in a holdall bag. Her boyfriend, Jason Dube from Zimbabwe, was being sought by the the police as the primary person of interest in the case, but he was found hanged in some woods in England a few days later.
Both Jason and Rudo had been attending the Solid Rock Church in Dublin for several weeks but were not members of the Church. Like everybody else, our Pastor in Dublin, Emmanuel Might, and the members of the Dublin branch of the Solid Rock, are shocked beyond words by these recent events. They have been voluntarily assisting the police in their enquiries by sharing as much information as they possess about this couple, and we hope that a fuller picture will emerge as to what exactly happened.
Today two families and friends of the deceased, at home and abroad, are seriously hurting and from the Solid Rock Church of God we send our heartfelt condolences, our word of encouragement, our support and prayers to the bereaved families. For now we will be joining hands together with the Malawian community to pay our respect to the late Ms Mawere until her body is laid to rest or flown home for burial.

Senior Pastor of Solid Rock Church, Drogheda
