Religious and political leaders across the globe on Tuesday continued to mourn Myles Munroe, the evangelical pastor and motivational speaker with a devoted following who was killed in a plane crash in the Bahamas Sunday.
Munroe, 60, founder and
president of Bahamas Faith Ministries International, died along with his
wife, Ruth, co-pastor Richard Pinder and six other people when the
small plane they were flying in struck a shipping crane on approach to
landing in stormy weather Sunday night at Grand Bahama International
Airport, the ministry and Bahamian authorities said.
Prime Minister Perry
Christie called Munroe "indisputably one of the most globally
recognizable religious figures our nation has ever produced." In a
briefing with reporters Tuesday, he said, "I ask myself why would God
take the life of someone who was one of his angels, one his disciples,
one of his apostles."
