This morning we did a big distribution of gospel texts near the bus depot in Devil Street, Lilongwe. It was very busy.

I had a guy wanting to marry me, when I told him I was already married he asked me if I had a sister, I told him she was already married too!! Quite the interesting morning!!

We had some good conversations with people too. And one of the girls in our group from Zambia saw someone from her village, he recognized her first. Its a small world!

When we got back for lunch quite a few were not feeling the greatest so it was decided to have a quiet afternoon to rest, so we did.

During our bible study tonight in Philippians chapter 1 I was challenged with a comment that was made “it’s not about what’s wrong with something but how will glory be brought to Christ in it?”

Here is the picture of the day (lady with bananas on her head) and a few more pics. Please pray for health restored asap… not just to us but for everyone in our group. Thx so much!

I really must apologise. MGO 2019 is more than half-way through, and I still haven’t posted an update.  I’m not sure whether that’s a reflection of the hotter-than-usual weather, the more manic-than-usual environment that is Lilongwe, or just that I’m getting too long in the tooth for this stuff 🙂

We are so thankful to the Lord for a great team of enthusiastic and energetic (at least for the first few days) volunteers.  They’ve assembled from N.Ireland, England, Scotland Canada and USA but gelled together almost instantly – a real testimony to the grace of God which has made us brothers and sisters in Christ.

Lilongwe is a chaotic, bustling African capital city, and it has been unseasonably hot, with daily temperatures in the high 20s or low 30s (Celcius), which together with the altitude and very dry atmosphere has posed its own problems.

Nevertheless, we have managed to distribute many thousand of John 3:16 texts and thousands more have heard the Gospel preached clearly and plainly in many parts of the city.

I’m going to try to catch up on some posts over the next couple of days, and am grateful to those of the team who have contributed photos of blog posts, which I’ll be reproducing here.  Please keep an eye on this page for updates.

It’s exactly one month, Lord willing, until we hope to hit the streets of Malawi’s capital, Lilongwe, for Seed Sowers distribution and Gospel preaching.

We are looking forward to being joined by a great team of volunteers from UK, USA and Canada.

In the meantime, please pray for the Lord’s help as we make the final preparations, for safe and trouble free travel for the team, and for rich blessing upon the Word once we begin.

At long last – here is the info brochure for MGO 2019
