Preparations for MGO are at an advanced stage and things are starting to become quite busy.

Please remember Anna and the team as they finalise arrangements with 3 schools for the team to visit to present the Gospel and distribute Seed Sower texts & Acts 16:31 exercise books. Also remember the preparations for the Children’s all-day event which will take place on Saturday 20th August, Lord willing.

Anna write: “Please pray that we would see the Lord using the seed that has been sown, the different relationships that have been formed and even the practical demonstrations of His love to draw many to Himself for salvation.

“I’m thinking specifically of MGO, but, of course, we long for Him to work in salvation at all times.”

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.

I had to cancel meetings planned for last Lord’s Day, and by Monday the leg was swollen, angry red, and becoming very painful. I was thankful for a very quick telephone appointment with my GP, who diagnosed cellulitis from an infected insect bite. He started me on an immediate course of antibiotics, and I’m thankful that in the past couple of days there is a noticeable improvement, although the leg is still somewhat discoloured and tender in places.

Anna writes:
I am thankful for a safe and positive trip to Dzaleka.
Please continue praying for the hope of Christ to shine in the hearts of these dear people, especially through the Bibletime curriculum (phase two to begin shortly).

Note: We introduced Swahili language Bible Time lessons at the Dzaleka Refugee Camp last year. This project has been very successful and has been a very useful pilot for the Chichewa work which is in advanced stages of development.

Brother Harold asks for special, urgent prayer for his sister, Sue (55), for whom he requested prayer before.

Sue is presently in hospital in Blantyre and receiving oxygen. She has multiple problems with organ function (heart, lungs & kidney). The local health care is very basic. Harold has been helping buy additional private care for Sue, but this has been on limited help. As Harold says, “she can only survive this with a real miracle.”

The situation is complicated by the fact that Sue is the family member who cares for Harold’s elderly mother, who is in her nineties. Village life is tough, even for healthy people.
