Points for Prayer & Thanksgiving

  • Friends in N. America – how you can help!

    Friends of SALT in N. America have been asking for some time how they can get involved practically in the work in Malawi.

  • Pray: Upcoming Bible Teaching Conference

    Please pray as Bros Stephen and Mark travel to Malawi this week in anticipation of the Bible Teaching conference at Saidi, commencing on 29 April, God willing. This will be the first conference to take place since before Covid, and we are earnestly seeking blessing as a result.

  • Cyclone Freddy – One Year On

    In March 2023, Cyclone Freddy, one of the strongest tropical storms to hit southern Africa, ripped through Malawi. In the space of 72 hours, the storm poured out half a year’s worth of rain, leaving devastation in its wake. An estimated 2,267,458 people were affected by the disaster with 659,278 people displaced in 749 camps. The evacuation camps were mainly sturdy structures within affected communities such as schools, churches and halls. The Cyclone most severely impacted the southern districts of Malawi, including Zomba, where SALT is located. It affected not only SALT’s close neighbours but also our volunteers in various…

  • Pray: Stephen travelling to Malawi

    Please remember Brother Stephen and his family as he will be travelling to Malawi on Tuesday to visit the team there. Unfortunately, Stephen’s father in law has been in hospital for the past week so he is sadly leaving his wife, Gail, with the burden of daily hospital runs, and the burden of supporting her mum and dad through this difficult time. Please pray for journeying mercies and that Stephen’s trip will be a help and blessing. Please also pray for Gail and family as they make important decisions regarding her dad’s future care needs.

  • Pray: Literature consignment still delayed

    Sad to say, our consignment of Gospel Literature for Malawi is still delayed in Mauritius. In total, there are around 1.75 million items in transit, including (now overdue) Gospel Calendars and Tracts. The consignment also includes several thousand prison hygiene packs. According to the revised shipping schedule, the container is due to be moved early March – pray that there will be no further delays.

  • 2024 Calendar Distribution

    Although we are frustrated that our major literature shipment has been delayed, Harold & Goodson have been busy distributing the Calendars and other literature we had printed locally.

  • Acute Food Insecurity

    Food Insecurity has improved only marginally after Cyclone Freddy. Many areas, especially in the Southern Region, remain in Crisis (IPC Phase 3) and remaining official maize reserves are only enough to feed 200,000 households for 1 month, according to official estimates.

  • Pray – Container of Literature Delayed in Transit

    Please pray for our latest shipment of Gospel Tracts and Calendars has been delayed in transit. Although the shipping agent told us on 16 Jan that it was due to arrive in a couple of days, it now turns out that the container has been stuck in Reunion / Mauritius since 28 Dec, with no ETA in Malawi. This is a disappointment as we are eager to start using the contents as soon as possible. Please pray that the container will soon be loaded on a ship for onward transit
