Short Term Missions trip to Malawi Print E-mail

Six young ladies are on a short term mission trip to Malawi. Here is a link to their blog. They have infrequent and slow access to the internet as you might imagine. It is fascinating to witness their struggles to understand the African culture and learn how to come alongside them rather than rush ahead as is the natural desire of those of us raised in a western fast-paced can-do culture.

Their names are Amy, Caroline, Katie, Lenelle, Monica and Ruth Ann. Monica and Amy are returning on July 23, the Lord willing, after 3 months in Malawi. The others are returning in August when their 3 month stays are up. Please pray for a blessing upon their service in Malawi.

Below are a few pictures taken at the kick-off for a Bible club at one of the orphan care centers belonging to the Nkhoma Orphan Care Project.
