A Start at Saidi – if not as we had hoped for!
The Lord knows how to keep us grounded. Although the Trustees would have loved to have been present in Malawi to oversee the start of the development of the site at Saidi, that has not been possible due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Anna Vallance to join the work in Malawi
I feel a little like Jude – eager to write about one thing, but constrained by the Holy Spirit through circumstances to write about another. However, unlike Jude, it is a very happy matter which now takes precedence. Initially my intention was just to write enclosing a copy of a recent letter that some of you will have received in the mail, in which we gave an update on our development plans in Malawi.

Delights at Dedza
It’s always a joy to stop at Dedza Pottery – one of my favourite spots, anywhere – to break the journey between Lilongwe and the south. The air is cool, they do the best Chicken Curry for miles around, and we’ve been enjoying Dedza Delights with great Malawian coffee since first we came to the country. A great watering hole.

Prison Chaplaincy Training
We spent two days at the Malawi Prison Service Training Centre at Mapanga, considering the important role of chaplaincy in the well-being of prisoners and reduction of reoffending.

Dzaleka Refugee Camp Update
Earlier this month we had the opportunity to pay a brief visit to see the ongoing work at Dzaleka. Jim & I were so grateful that the ongoing unrest in Malawi abated enough to enable us to make a brief visit to see the work of COOM which we have been privileged to support a little during the past few months.
