Our Prayer Focus

We want to provide you with up-to-date information about one of  our projects each month so that you can pray into the work that we are doing in Malawi and become more aware of what is happening throughout the year. We hope you find these informative and a useful tool for prayer.

Dear Friends,

“Pray without ceasing” 

We are so grateful for your prayer support of our projects.

Without prayer we can do nothing.

This month we would invite you to pray for the developing Bible Explorer programme and for the communities in which we work in and around Salima.

 
 

Bible Explorer is being taught in more schools this year. 

Approximately 15,000 primary school children will be taught the Bible each week.

Please pray for:

  • For the BX team as they prepare and teach the classes.  

  • For the impact that the programme will have in all the schools visited.

  • That God will open the hearts of the children as they listen, participate and learn.

  • That the word of God will change the lives of the children and that they will be able to share what they learn with their family and friends.

  • For good relationships between the school teaching staff and the BX team.

  • For continued funding for this programme as it develops and grows.

Please praise for:

  • Three new volunteers who have joined the team.   

  • The impact the programme is having on students and teachers.

  • For new resources received from the UK.

 
 

Local Communities surround our work, especially Ngolowindo.

Our teams are meeting many from the communities, including chiefs and council members

Please pray for:

  • Good relationships to be developed between the Starfish team and the villagers and community leaders.

  • The community maize fields to produce a good harvest despite quite heavy rains.

  • The health of all families during this rainy season when malaria is high risk.

  • For a reasonable standard of living despite the ongoing high food prices

    Please praise for:

  • Willingness of the communities to support the work of Starfish.

  • Good relationships with the village leaders in Ngolowindo.

Starfish was born to create a world of difference, one by one!

“Without prayer, we can do nothing, for God provides for us and
those we seek to serve”

We also want to share with you of the sad news that Mark Aldrich has died suddenly of a stroke.

He was our Trusts and Grants Officer and has been part of the Starfish team for many years. He will be sadly missed by us all.

Please pray for his parents and his brother and family at this sad time.
