July Prayer Letter

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)

1     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.

2    We 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.

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