Final Sunday Praise Report about the month
Sunday morning *from the Mensers in Malawi
*from your church participants
*new commitments toward missions
Throughout the month we will also ask everyone who is willing and able to fast at least one day per week. We will fast on each Tuesday. The reasons behind fasting are: 1) God is honored by
it, 2) It reminds you to “hunger and thirst” for the Lord, 3) It will remind you of the hunger Malawians face every day. There are multiple ways to fast such as fasting from all food for 24 hours or
from sun up to sun down. Some may want to just fast from one particular type of food such as meat. We will be doing a total fast (except water and fruit juices) from sun up to sun down.
We can also do a live phone call to the church during church service. All we would need is someone on your end with a cell phone that has a speaker phone built in to it (most have that these
days). When we call, you can hold the phone up to a mic at the church and we could say hello, thank you, give a praise report and pray for the church. We can coordinate this as the time gets
closer if this is something you want to do.
