Yesterday, Sunday the 10th, we had a great day here at the Mission House in Zomba, Malawi. The first generation of students, their pastors and the new generation of students met together with my team and our visitors for an amazing time of fellowship and thanksgiving to our Lord. All in all, more than 70 people were present and celebrated all that God is doing.
After the church service and the lunch, we had the graduation ceremony for our first generation of students as well as the welcoming ceremony for the new generation. 16 students are ready to go out and share the Word throughout Malawi, planting churches, leading people to Christ and serving God in any way He calls them.
Malawi is a nation that needs Jesus. Every way you turn, you can find helpless people and a nation harassed by the demonic influences which are so active in their communities. There is a need for more followers of Jesus to share the Gospel and to tell people about the only hope for the future: Jesus Christ.
Pray for these 16 men who were just sent out; pray for the new 16 students who have just begun. Pray the Lord of the harvest will send out more laborers into His harvest.
When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.’
Jesus, Matthew 9:36-38
