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.
