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” 

Without prayer we can do nothing.

This month we would invite you to pray for our work with the nursery schools at Glad Tidings and Chapsinja.

To give children education in their early years is vital for their development and provides them with essential understanding of counting and writing ahead of primary school.

 
 

Please pray for:

  • Diligence and wisdom for the teachers as they teach the children.

  • Safety at each of the 5 nurseries, as some are near to the main road.

  • The children to have a good attention span each morning enabling them to learn well.

  • The ladies who cook the daily meals.

  • More Montessori teaching resources and materials to expand and develop the work.

  • The provision of funding for new chairs for each nursery.

  • Good transitions into primary school.

  • Funding to be forthcoming for the extra classrooms needed.

  • Provision of healthy food to grow well and nourish the children.  

 
 

Give praise for:

  • The number of good teachers that we have

  • Good exam results being obtained in primary school by children who have attended the nurseries.

  • Consistent teaching and preparation of lessons.

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.
