Items for Prayer from ABC Malawi

Let me apologize for the long silence. We are trying to get some things together with a newsletter and some blog posts. Were just in one of those BUSY seasons right now--I am sure some of you can sympathize because you may be there yourself as well. The Lord has been gracious to allow us to not be too busy to pray. The Mission staff that are still around have been meeting to pray together on Wednesday nights, below is the list from tonight. Please pray as you feel lead.

Grace and Peace,

Brian
