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” 

Please join with us in prayer for the work at Hope Clinic and for the completion of construction and equipping work at the Maternity wing.

Your prayerful support is much appreciated.

We know that so many of you are persevering in prayer for all of the projects.

 
 

Patients in waiting room.

Please pray for:

  • The staff team at the clinic, including two new nurses, that they will be diligent in their work and respond to the needs of children and adults that come to the clinic.

  • Enough medicines to be available in the pharmacy so that those who need them will not have a long-wasted journey.

  • Each patient as they attend the clinic, that they will be able to be seen without too long a wait and that they can describe their ailment to the staff coherently.

  • The continued completion of the maternity wing, that all the work requested by the health authority can be done in the next couple of months.

  • The visit of the Medical Council in the Autumn to agree and sign off the work allowing an opening date to be fixed.

  • Expectant mothers in the community, currently needing to travel a distance to hospital to give birth.

  • Adequate resources to be supplied to the maternity wing so it can be a huge benefit to the area. 

 
 

Maternity Wing

Give praise for:

  • The continued financial support for the clinic’s running costs, from UK trusts.

  • The dedicated medical officers who are attending to over 3000 patients a month.

  • The support within the community for the work at the clinic.

  • The full funding of the maternity wing.

We also want to share with you of the sad news that Mark Aldrich has recently 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.
