Prayer Team
Hello our dear prayer team,
We are extending an invitation to be a part of a new WtS weekly prayer Zoom call. It will be held every Monday @ 7am CST and will run for 30 minutes.
It’s free to join, but will cost you the death of some of your flesh 🤣. To get the link we need to know if you are interested. Please reply to this email and let us know how frequently you'd be able to join in. We'd love to have you join us as frequently as you're able.
We anticipate this being an exciting way to co-labor with David and the team in Malawi. We just had our first official meeting. David joined the call and shared that 7am CST works well for him too, at lease for this season in life as he waits for baby #2 🤰🏾.
During the first meeting we covered the two italicized topics below (#1 & #10) which you're welcome to lift up throughout the week!
In closing I want to emphasize that you deciding to join our new prayer zoom call would mean the world to us. Our hope is that having weekly meetings will open up new possibilities as to your involvement.
Looking forward to meeting everyone,
Melissa
P.S. Just in case your looking for a good book, “Why Revival Tarries” by Lenard Ravenhill was recommended by David in the last meeting.
1. Curses can instill fear in people in Malawi. Sometimes girls and even adults will stay silent when they see or have evil things done to them. They can be scared of being cursed or even poisoned by the people they expose. Pray against this fearful power that is perpetuating evil practices and preventing people from bringing them into the light. In keeping with God's word, we hope that people will find Jesus even if they are not looking to him or for him.
-Romans 10:20 "Isaiah spoke boldly for God, saying, “I was found by people who were not looking for me. I showed myself to those who were not asking for me.”
2. Pray that God would draw more people to the Malawian mission field as the harvest is plentiful. Also that God will prepare and provide their needs in coming.
3. Ever increasing measures of Christ centered unity for all involved in the day-to-day running of our safe-home and the ministry.
4. Protection and "on the ground" collaboration between our staff and our Board President (Darrell) during his upcoming trip to Malawi (June 22th).
5. Godly wisdom for our counselors as they work with each girls' specific needs. Pray for protection from second hand trauma so they can press forward with health and in Christ's power.
6. Godly sorrow that leads to repentance for every oppressor that has exploited one of the girls at When the Saints.
7. Health over Essy’s pregnancy as Taji becomes a big brother!
8. New, faithful donors & consistent giving during this inflationary period.
9. There was a recent devaluation of the Malawian currency by 25% in one day. Pray for Godly strategy for the board and staff on how to move forward in its wake.
10. That God would direct our path in Malawi to find three new counselors during our up coming interviews. We are also looking to select a much needed Human Resource manager before the end of the year for our current and growing staff of 47 Malawians.
