Malawi village report 2

Dear Friends,

The Lord has continued to move in Malawi. Hundreds of people came to the Jesus film showing each night and many were saved. The people would run forward to receive the Jesus they saw on the screen. What a delight to see so many come to Jesus.

The follow up teaching time the next morning was powerful as well. One day the Holy Spirit showed up big time and interupted our plans. He had a healing service in mind. A number of people were healed. On another occassion a woman was healed from a painful shoulder injury. Praise God!

On to Kampala, Uganda, tomorrow. We will be having 3 nights of revival meetings, 2 nights of women's meetings and a Sunday service. I covet your prayers for the Holy Spirit to lead and guide me and to have His way in these meetings.

Blessings, Heidi

Malawi village outreach report 1

Hi, Dear Friends,

Your prayers are working! God is on the move. Hundreds of people watched the Jesus Film at each of the five villages we traveled to near Blantyre, Malawi. There were hundreds of decisions for Christ during the week. We also saw several people healed supernaturally and delivered from demons. All praise goes to God. I worked with the children's follow up, the medical clinic and some of the preaching about the Foursquare Gospel. We've had opportunities to pray for many people to receive healing. There is much sickness in the villages, both physical and spiritual.

I have been healthy and strong thanks to your prayers and God's protection. Please continue to pray for us as we battle the forces of darkness.

The people are great. They greet us with singing and dancing, smiles and handshakes. We have sleep under grass covered areas where the stars peak through. The weather has been cold here and threatening rain but so far we have been protected. Praise God for a warm sleeping bag and a cot to keep us off the ground. There are some gnarly insects and critters here but nothing has harmed us.

We head out on Saturday for a 4 night, 5 day journey to the south of Blantyre. Please continue your prayer vigil on our behalf.

Love to all,
Heidi

Greetings from Malawi

Hi, Dear Friends,

Arrived on late Tuesday after 20+ hours on 4 flights. I was able to sleep quite a bit. We've had 2 days to rest and prepare. Tomorrow we head for the villages and will be gone 5 days. I will be helping with the medical clinic and praying for healing.

Our hotel is decent, the grounds are nice. Food is good. People are friendly and helpful. I saw the Blantrye Foursquare church (nice building) and school. The kids were very happy to greet us.

Please pray for our 3 teams as we all head out tomorrow. 10 of the people only arrived this morning. Pray for quick relief of jet lag and stamina for them and all of us.

All my bags are packed

Hi, Dear Friends,

Well, my bags are not completely packed but almost. This Sunday, July 6th, I head for Malawi for 3 weeks with Water Wells for Africa and then on to Uganda for a week of revival meetings. I will be back in the USA on August 5th, just in time for my nephew's wedding on the 8th.

I covet your prayers for my trip. See Prayer Requests for how you can be praying for me!

I'll do my best to post reports as I have availability to the Internet.

Blessings,
Heidi
