Greetings from Malawi! Home on the ground in Africa 12,000 miles beyond the horizon. I must say, these are some of the most beautiful people on the planet. And as often as one may hear it said, I didn’t come to impact them as much as they have impacted me.

In short, we are having the most incredible time and God is totally blessing!

It’s Saturday night here and we just completed another day of teaching and ministry and loving on some of the most needy people on our planet. I spoke at the local Men’s breakfast outreach this morning. It was awesome to be in the presence of the Lord with these men who want nothing more than to serve the Lord. The team joined me afterwards to go to the village to provide blankets and mosquito nets in the name of Jesus and in the name of Horizon Christian Fellowship. You guys just blessed a whole bunch of kids who had nothing…until today.

This has been a remarkable week of service here; preaching a dozen times,
(Willy Briscoe has also been teaching here, so the blessings are being shared abundantly), giving the children a taste of VBS (great job Jared!), bringing food to the villages, providing bedding and mosquito nets, visiting the AIDS baby crisis center, and bringing music and worship (props to the Mike Clark Band) to some folks who praise the Lord passionately!

I will be heading for Germany to speak at the European Pastors Conference this week, as Team Africa returns home. Please be in prayer as we wrap up our ministry to the glory of God.

You are missed and loved by your team. Thanks everyone..for making this trip possible.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Love you, pb
