Concerning the Christmas program at Dzaleka, Anna writes: “Please pray for grace, strength and safety as Wati and I anticipate two two-day kids’ camps at Dzaleka next week. Please pray that the gospel will be central.

“Please also pray for the Lord to continue to use Bibletime in the refugee camp to bring many to the Saviour.”

Please continue to pray for the progress and arrival of the shipment of Gospel Calendars sent recently. This is now expected to land in Beira (Mozambique) on 13 December. Arrival in Malawi is likely to take at least a further 4 weeks.

We have been considering printing part of the expected shortfall of calendars in Malawi, but prices have more than doubled since we last printed there. We expect considerable outlay for printing Nthawi ya Baibulo in the New Year, Lord willing, so please pray that we will have wisdom in the prioritisation decisions we have to make.

Anna requests: Please continue to pray for salvation, specifically for people’s eyes to be opened to the truth of the gospel of grace.

Note: Malawi is a “Christian” country, however for many their understanding of the Gospel is seriously flawed. It is not unusual to hear professions of faith, only to discover on further enquiry that the person is depending upon their own works. As the work grows, it is important that we pray it will have a firm foundation – that those who profess will have been genuinely been saved by grace.

Anna asks that we give thanks for the arrival of the annual rains.

Note: Over 85% of Malawians are poor, subsistence farmers. Most have very small farms and cannot afford to irrigate. Accordingly, they at depend heavily upon natural rainfall if they are to feed themselves and their families. In recent years, the rains have been very erratic, leading to serious food insecurity.

The situation has been made very much more precarious this year due to the rocketing price of fertiliser as a consequence of the war in Ukraine.

We want to say Thank You to Naomi Steele who recently took the initiative and arranged a coffee morning in support of the work in Malawi.

Although they were too shy to appear on camera, several dozen local Christian ladies came to enjoy Naomi’s fantastic hospitality.

We are really encouraged to see the increasing interest at the children’s work at Saidi.

Since the MGO day camp in August, the number of children and youth attending has been continued to increase. They now meet as three separate age groups. As you can see from the photos below, one group meets in the msasa (thatch gazebo), while another smaller group meets under a smaller gazebo.The remaining group is meeting in the block-making shed (you can just see the mound of gravel) for lack of space elsewhere.

Give thanks that Goodson and Harold’s health are both improving after their recent illnesses, but please keep praying for stamina and overall well-being.

Note: As with almost every public service in Malawi, government health care is seriously under-resourced, to the point of being useless in many areas. Our Malawian brothers and sisters have, at best, very limited access to private health care, so minor ailments can easily become big problems. Please remember them continually in your prayers,
