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.

500,000 Gospel calendars and 2400 Prison Hygiene packs will soon be on their way to Malawi.

Earlier this week we loaded 96 cartons into a rental van at SALT’s depot in Newtownards. We extend sincere thanks to the assemblies and individuals across the UK who have helped put these packs together.

As previously mentioned, we weren’t able to have this weeks’ annual trustees’ workshop as planned. However, some of us met together for a couple of days earlier this week to discuss some of the topics which had been on our agenda.

It’s almost a year since our extremely useful Trustees workshop at Pitcott Farm, Somerset. We had planned to be together again in Scotland this week. Sadly those plans have had to be temporarily shelved, following sister Janet’s cancer diagnosis. Please join in praying with us for successful surgery later this month, and for a full and quick recovery.

Brother Harold shared this photograph of the group that turned out for the meeting this morning.

It’s so encouraging to see how the regular Sunday Gospel meeting has continued to grow in number following the two-week series during MGO.

As we give thanks for this, Harold asks that we also pray for wisdom to know how best to take the work forward. Pray too for blessing in salvation as the Gospel is preached.

Please remember the deteriorating economic situation in Malawi, illustrated by this plea for help received this morning from a senior prison officer in Malawi.

“Good morning Stephen, I trust the Lord is keeping you well.

“We have a difficult situation at C* Prison and N* Prison. The two prisons have run out food. We have maize in stock at M* Prison Farm but there is no fuel. Therefore, I am requesting if SALT can come in to help. The Officer In-charge for N* Prison personally called me on the need.
