Beloved in Christ Jesus,
Grace be to you and
peace from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ who gave Himself for
our sins,that he might deliver us from this present evil world,according to the
will of God and our Father. I keep you and your family in my prayers.
A big "thank
you" to all those who pray for us,the family but also the work we
still do with Bread of Life Baptist ministries in Malawi.Very often we are so
conscious that we couldn't do what we are doing without your support.
MINISTRY BLESSINGS
(a)
BIBLE INSTITUTE
As we started the Bible
Institute in May,the thought on our mind is,"We have a faithful God Who is
able to do more than we can ask or think." When we began classes ,this
school year,the Lord sent 29 students.It is always a joy to have new students
as our ministry is about training "competent,compassionate,effective
servant-leaders for the ministry of Christ in the local churches of Malawi,and
the world. Bread of Life Bible Institute continues to be excited in being an
agent of God in training,preparing and ministering to those whom God sends to
us.Join with us in prayer that the Lord of the harvest will raise up more for
this vital training.
Through our first three
months since we opened the Bible Institute we have faced fears,challenges and
blessings and we have certainly discovered the truth of Psalm 27;13,"I had
fainted,unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of
the living."Thank each of you for you prayers.It has been an exciting and
at the same time challenging three months but at the same time we have
experienced incredible blessings from the Lord.
(b) NEW
BAPTISTERY
Two weeks ago,Our
faithful God filled our hearts with tears of joy as we baptized 19 new converts
at our newly baptistery constructed on our property.Before we constructed the
baptistery we had to travel long distance down to the river if we could get any
water for baptism.The water there wasn't good for our health.Thanks again
for your prayers and support.You are my encouragement while I am in harvest
field.I am eternally grateful for you and to God for making possible for me to
connect you.Thanks once again for being so helpful.
(c) CHILDREN
MINISTRY
Our Children ministry
has also take off.It's a blessing to see these participating in lessons,memorizing
scriptures,trusting in Jesus,and learning Bible principles which will guide
them throughout life.
HARD TO SAY GOODBYE
We have enjoyed
visit from Harry and his son-in-law Arlin in May and June.They were such a
blessing as they came ready to work.Their visit was so sweet to see loved
ones,and we can imagine the joy we will have in Heaven of never having to say
'Goodbye' ever again
PRAYERS
Remember us before the
throne of grace as often as possible (Ephesians 6;18)

We are desperate in need of a vehicle.Pray with us about the desire of ours to
have a vehicle to be able to minister in many ways we otherwise couldn't be
able to minister.It is not easy to accomplish all we are doing without a
vehicle only depend on bicycles and public transport.

are struggling with Medical and food bills for the students.Please if
possible remember us in your prayers so that we can accomplish His will
for us in Malawi.

We are desperate for the Lord to use us,We therefore crave for your prayers.
