Pray for a short series of Gospel Meetings which we intend to have at the Saidi complex. These will commence after the Open Day on 20 November, God willing.
Preparations for Open Day
Pray for preparations for our Open Day at Saidi on 20 November. We expect up to 500 people from the community may attend.
We plan to have contributions from the young people who attend the various Bible study groups, a traditional meal together, and one or two Gospel presentations
Vehicle Maintenance Issues
Please pray for a resolution to problems involving both our Toyota Landcruiser and Isuzu Pickup:
- Stephen has sourced a reconditioned Brake Master Cylinder & Brake Booster which he plans to take to Malawi in November. Pray that it will arrive safely & that it will solve the braking issue
- The Isuzu is still off the road having undergone an engine overhaul. The mechanic is very unresponsive to requests for an update.
Seeing Norris at the site every day, happily working alongside the carpenter
Anna reports that it’s been a real encouragement to see Norris at the site every day, happily working alongside the carpenter.
Norris is from the Child-Headed Households group and we have been trying to help him learn carpentry skills as unfortunately he’s now too old to go back to resume his school education.
Strengthening Relationships with Child-Headed Households
Slowly but surely relationships with the children from the child-headed homes are strengthening (Anna)
Immigration Permit (Anna)
Anna asks: “Pray for approval of two-year immigration permit, which has been in progress for about a month now.
Container office conversion underway
This is the Lord’s doing
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
Planning, planning, planning!
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.
Zatsala pang’ono
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.
