Brother Stephen has been considering when to make his next visit to Malawi. Recent events have confirmed that this should be sooner rather than later, so he plans to depart on 12 April, Lord willing.
Please pray that Stephen will remain Covid-free prior to departure, and while in Malawi, as a Covid infection could cause serious disruption to travel arrangements.
Now top of our priority list is installation of CCTV security cameras around the site at Saidi. We had already planned to do this, but Anna’s burglary has highlighted how important this is. There is huge economic stress in Malawi and this inevitably leads to an increase in crime. We feel we must take seriously the safety and security of personnel and property on-site.
There are a number of other matters to attend to, included visits to the projects at Dzaleka and Lilongwe which had to be aborted because of vehicle problems during Stephen & Jim’s visit in March.
