Service in 2009


The rains have taken a break, we hope not for a long time otherwise we will be faced with starvation! We are drawing towards the time of election here in Malawi, campaign will start in two days, more promises, its always the poor who are cheated, and these selfish politicians are always going to these vulnerable people, giving them sugar, salt and party clothes to persuade them to vote for them. please pray for us that whoever wins will not boast so much and whoever loses will accept defeat and go home! The Lord continues to protect us in our family, we live not far away from Lilongwe town in an area called 36, This is one of the areas that has been hit by the Cholera out break, this water borne disease has claimed the lives of over 65 people already, we happen to live in one of the areas that has been hit by this diesese, as i am writting this update, we have stayed without running water for 4 days, but the Lord is keeping us safe! The church is growing, i will be fully involved with a church in the nearby village, this is one of the poorest areas in Lilongwe, but the people are very eager to be taught, they are tired of the hearing preachers telling them lies, people go to these poor people and tell them that God doesnt want them to be poor, and that if they are poor its because they havent been faithful in their giving, they are more often told to "sow a seed" {whatever that means} if they want God to reach out to them, it is my heart desire to preach the word to people like these, empowering them so that when some people come with the false teaching, they will be able to biblically refute it. in few days i will post pictures of the area i will be working, and the homes of the people i will be visiting.

Pray for us;


  • That the Lord will continue to grant us good health

  • That the Lord will provide a car that we can use in our service to him and also for our own own use.

  • That the Lord will help out during the elections in May.

  • For the Lord to open more doors for me to preach.

  • For Patricia during this time of pregnacy, for her safety as she travels in our public transport.
