The Government of Malawi estimates that almost 220,000 (48,000 households) are affected in Malawi. The worst affected areas are in the Mulanje and Nsanje districts. These are both areas where we have active literature distribution volunteers.

The Government has declared a State of Disaster in the affected areas.

Please pray:

1. Concerning the needs of those affected. Anna specifically asks that many will be spoken to by the flooding situation.
2. That SALT personnel will have the necessary wisdom and guidance to formulate an appropriate response.

Some of our neighbours in the area immediately around Saidi have been affected by the heavy rains. We are considering how best to help them. Many people will have been affected by loss of crops and livestock.

Dumisani, one of the workers operating the block moulding, machine has injured a finger this morning.

Please pray for him, and for the health and safety of other workers on the site.

I don’t know many more details.

Anna asks that you pray for a clear sense of direction and focus as the new year begins.

There are so many opportunities but only limited resources, so we would all appreciate your prayer in this respect.

Please pray that Anna’s Work Permit, which has been outstanding for several months now, will be approved very soon. She returned from her visit to Zambia, but is now in the country on a Visitor’s Visa only.

Anna requests prayer regarding her visa. This has been outstanding for some months and her temporary visa was cancelled when she travelled outside the country to attend her friend’s wedding in Zambia

Pray: Anna’s Visa Approval

We are thankful for a good audience for the online broadcast on 3 Jan.

Pray that the hearts of God’s people will be stirred as they consider the importance of the uncompleted commission.

Pray too that more will be concerned to pray about the work of the Lord in Malawi.
