We are now three weeks back in sunny Malawi with our hearts
warm as well. We have been here a little over a year and a half, and we are
amazed at what God has done. We began our 4th semester of Bible
College with added fervor. Regularly we have 70 students packed into our rented
room and our church continues to grow. The hall we wanted to rent still is
occupied so we have looked elsewhere.
Oh and did we
mention, the team has grown! Two weeks ago we welcomed my parents who decided
delay their retirement and join the team. It is amazing to see their energy and
desire that never seems to wane. Last week we received Matt and Lisa Sliva and
Peter. More and more we see the vision that Pastor Stevens saw back in the 70’s
as he spoke about the importance of team missions. Today we were all
evangelizing on the streets of Lilongwe and there was an amazing anointing that
drew people to us as we preached thr Gospel (although Peter’s camouflage pants
helped also).
We covet your
prayers, our first international conference –MalawiCon- begins in 2 weeks. We
are tying up the final details. The conference is from Friday to Sunday, Oct
10-12. We will be receiving Pr. Scibelli from Baltimore and Pr. Suruma from
Uganda. Our desire is to take a leap of faith and believe God for 200 people to
attend, we have rented a hall and are raising the money to feed every attendee
for Lunch Saturday and Sunday for FREE! We would like this conference to be a
great blessing for all who attend. The theme of if is “Healing of Grace”. We
believe the title alone will draw people and give them the proper perspective
of the primary healing of the soul.
