Points for Prayer & Thanksgiving

  • Pray: Preservation of the work

    Although there is much reason for thanksgiving, especially concerning the commencement of a regular Gospel meeting at Saidi, the numerical increase in the adult and Children’s Bible studies, and the recent re-roofing of the Msasa, there is also much need for prayer. Please particularly pray for the physical preservation of the work and workers, eachRead More

  • Msasa Re-roofing project

    It’s such a thrill to see work substantially complete on the msasa re-roofing project. The refurbished structure was put to good use for the first Sunday Gospel Meeting at Saidi.

  • Give Thanks: Improvement in Stephen’s health

    Brother Stephen writes: Even as I wrote recently to appreciate how smoothly my recent trip had gone, a nasty infection was developing in my leg.

  • Give Thanks: Commencement of regular Gospel Meeting at Saidi

    We praise God for the commencement of a regular Gospel meeting at Saidi this Lord’s Day.

  • The South Wind Blew

    Acts 28:13 records how after many winds of adversity, at last the south wind blew, speeding Paul and his companions toward their desired destination. Several recent trips to Malawi had their share of difficulty and disappointment (all in the Lord’s purpose). However, I am thankful that, apart from a 24 hour delay in Frankfurt onRead More

  • Pray: Stephen’s last few days in Malawi & journey home

    By the grace of God, apart from the missed connection on the outbound journey, Stephen’s latest visit to Malawi has been without further incident. Please pray for the rest of his visit, and for travelling mercies as he begins the journey home on Wednesday.

  • Give Thanks: Encouragement in Lilongwe & Dzaleka

    Stephen & Harold have been on the road for several days last week, supplying Gospel literature and visiting the projects SALT has an interest in at Lilongwe and Dzaleka. At Mchesi, Lilongwe, around 300 street kids and vulnerable adults receive a simple but nutritious meal daily. Without it, most would have to scavenge or starve.Read More

  • Pray: Harold’s sisters (Sue & Hancy) & mother

    Stephen writes: This past week it’s been a real blessing for me to travel again with Harold as we did so often in years past. It’s been a joy to speak of the Lord, His Word and His Work as the miles rolled by. Although Harold is always very discreet when speaking about his (frequent)Read More
