We were very encouraged to see the enthusiasm for the Swahili Bible Time lessons we’ve been sending into the Dzaleka Refugee Camp.
Brother William took the initiative to train a further 17 teachers from various churches in the camp.
It’s so thrilling to see the new Msasa and the recently made benches being put to good use.
Pray that many of these children and adults will come to a real understanding of the Gospel and come to know the Lord as their Saviour.
Preparations are underway for the Open Day at Saidi on 20 November.
The builders have started to construct a kitchen and the carpenters have begun to make wooden benches for the guests to sit on.
It’s just impossible to keep up with the pace of progress at Saidi.
We just received these photographs of today’s work on the container office and finishing work on the roof.
Thanks again to everyone who has helped make this possible, either through your prayers or your sacrifice.
We had a great online meeting with the team in Malawi when we got first-hand accounts of the following areas of the work:
Goodson – Building project & local History outreach
Anna – Child-Headed Households & School visits
SALT Trustees have got together in Somerset for a second week-long series of meetings to review progress so far and to plan and strategize for the future development of the work.
We first did this in August 2020 and found the time extremely useful.
Work on roofing the container bay is so close to completion.
We expect to begin the conversion of the middle container next week. It will be fitted out for use as offices for translation work and Bible Time ministry.
Thanks again to everyone whose generosity has made this possible.
You can see a pictorial history of the project here.
The team met yesterday to plan for our first big event at Saidi.
On 20th November we plan to invite members of the various Bible study groups, builders and tradesmen working on the site, local dignitaries and others for an open day to hear a Gospel presentation and learn more about our plans.
It’s hoped that the UK trustees of SALT will be represented by Stephen and Jim.
An initial guest list suggests we could have as many as 500 present, so please pray for the planning involved.
A very big thank you to Samuel and all our friends at Revival Movement / Every Home Crusade for helping us with this further large shipment of Gospel Literature for Malawi, despatched yesterday.
The first heavy rains fell earlier this week, so the roof doesn’t come a minute too early.
Once the IBR sheets go on, we will start the conversion of the middle container to office accommodation
