Once
  again these past few months have been filled with plenty of things to do as
  well as watching God prepare us for the ministry here in Malawi.I am so sorry
  for not getting back to you sooner.The word that seems to best describe our
  life and situation is"overwhelming". The task of teaching, funeral
  and street preaching, passing out tracts,starting new churches,train national
  pastors,showing Jesus film,encouraging orphans and widows etc. seems so
  overwhelming.The task ahead of us in the ministry seems equally
  overwhelming. God has placed a great burden upon me to train my fellow
  national pastors and I believe that He has been preparing me for a time such
  as this,but the task is just so large and so complicated. It would be easy to
  be overcome with the weight and the burden,but I have been reminded recently
  through my bible study that God too has overwhelming met every need that we
  have ever had, and although I am weak, He is strong.  Although it is a rain
  season here in Malawi, 186 new believers had an opportunity to get baptized. 3
  churches have been started and we have witnessed more than two thousands
  people accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior. Please pray for the new
  believers I want to see them grow in their faith and eventually become
  disciple makers for Christ. Continue to pray for the people of Malawi that God
  may open all doors and give wisdom to me to go through them according to His
  will and time.Sad to say;The Muslim have built a decent mosque and are
  constructing a school block just 200 meters from my house. Every fortnight are
  giving handout of food stuffs and clothes to people around our area, in order
  to invite them to join their religion which it leads to two-fold children of
  the devil. May you please pray for our area. I thank God for the good health of
  my wife and all the children.We are receiving good rains this year and I hope
  we will have a good harvest this year. Brother Harry Schenimann from Stoney
  Mountain Baptist church,NC who has been a great blessing to the ministry in
  Malawi for many years is coming this coming summer. May you consider coming
  with him and I promise you that your visit will change your life for the
  better and your life will not be the same because you"ll witness the
  first hand for yourselves what our good God is doing through us. If God is
  directing you to come or help in any way please let us know so that we can
  give you more information. 
Please pray for the following; 
1. Chichewa bibles for new
  believers.They are willing to learn more about God but they are limited they
  can't afford to buy one because of poverty. 
2. The Church building and Bible
  institute.I thank you all for all you've done to help me and the people of Malawi. 
Unfortunately
  words fail to express my gratitude for you and all you've done.May God
  greatly bless you. Stay blessed, Joseph Maweta family |
