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”
This month we invite you to pray for our work in our four nurseries of Glad Tidings, Moyo, Jonasi and Kundayi.
We would also appreciate your prayers for the new president of Malawi, Peter Mutharika and his government.
Please pray for:
The children in the nurseries that they will continue to learn well end enjoy their time each day in the lessons and playtime.
The teachers as they prepare materials and teach the children.
For wisdom and guidance of the nurseries team as they seek to support both the children and their families.
For safety in play time and enjoyment as the children relate to each other.
For continued resources for teaching and funding for the work.
For the funding to enable the building of extra classrooms for three of the sites next year.
For continued good exam grades for the children when they reach primary school.
For the new President of Malawi, that he governs with wisdom and discernment and has the wellbeing of Malawians at heart.
For all government officials as they adapt to new challenges in governing.
For the local officials in Salima that Starfish work with, that they will be fair in all their dealings.
For the economy of the country to improve under the new government
Praise for:
Good teaching that has achieved good results across all the nurseries.
For quality teachers and supportive managers.
For the eagerness of children to learn well.
The funders who have enabled the work to grow and develop.
The new government who has ambitions to help the people of Malawi with the increased cost of living.
An election that saw few incidents of anger and was mainly calm.
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.
