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 two new programmes that we are starting to develop in the communities.
The Community Feeding Programme and the Integrated Farming System.
Both of these programmes seek to assist the communities with becoming self-sustainable with the provision of food for school children and their families.
Please pray for:
For good communication between the Malawi team and the schools involved in the feeding programme.
That the schools will adhere to instruction and guidance for sustaining the maize crop and using the harvest wisely.
That many children will be blessed by their meals so they can attend school.
That more schools will be added to the programme as funds allow.
For the community leaders and school committees as they learn how to farm well to enable a good harvest each year.
For the preparation and planning of the Integrated Farming System, model farm to be built in Ngolowindo, that this will bring much needed training to communities on how to farm in a sustainable way and be able to provide ample food.
For those who will construct the farm, that they will be careful to follow instructions so that the land is used well.
For funds to be forthcoming to enable the construction.
For the provision of a person with the right credentials to lead and oversee the project in Malawi.
Praise for:
The first maize harvest at the three schools involved in the community programme.
Better school attendance because of the meals provided.
The land being already available for the model farm in Ngolowindo.
The wisdom and forethought of those involved in these projects.
Starfish was born to create a world of difference, one by one!

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.
