'He believed in forgiveness and he forgave, even those who kept him in jail for 27 years,' Zuma said in a eulogy. 'He stood for freedom. He fought against those who oppressed others. He wanted everyone to be free.' 
The service, which was also attended by Mr Mandela's grandson Mandla Mandela, was held as the country started a week of mourning for the inspirational freedom fighter. South Africa is readying itself for the arrival of a flood of world leaders for Mr Mandela's memorial service and funeral.

People were gathering all across South Africa yesterday as Nelson Mandela's 'Rainbow Nation' starts a week of official mourning to mark his death.
The country has come to a standstill for a national day of reflection as people mass together in parks, churches and public spaces to pay tribute to South Africa's first black president.
Mr Mandela, also known as Madiba, passed away on Thursday at his home in Houghton at the age of 95. It provoked a worldwide outpouring of emotion.

 

Multi faith ceremonies are taking place all over the country. In Johannesburg, South African president Jacob Zuma will attend a service at a Methodist church, while Mr Mandela's successor as president Thabo Mbeki will mark the day of prayer at a local synagogue.
The Nelson Mandela foundation is also holding a ceremony at its headquarters and in a township outside the city, Cathy Kathrada, a fellow inmate at Robben Island will host a ceremony of remembrance.
Mr Kathrada will speak about his Robben Island inmate, in what is being billed as a celebration of his life.
