Written Jan 6, 2020:

*Disclaimer. When I made this post there were no pictures but I was able to post them a month later in a separate post on fb. I will add them in this post because I already have them.*

I know it’s been a while but I don’t have any WiFi where I am and the WiFi before didn’t allow me to post from my blog so I’m going to update you guys as fast as I can!

So so much has happened in the last week! We flew to Dubai and stayed in the airport for a day and then flew to Tanzania where we went outside the airport to spend th night in a hotel.

A team from 4 different nations
We had a 20 hour layover at the Dubai airport

The air in Tanzania was so thick and hot! We were very blessed to get a hotel with air conditioning. We had to go to a different place though because when we got there they told us it was full. But after a couple hours we finally were able to bring our stuff into a second hotel and we slept well.

After that we flew to Blantyre airport in Malawi.

There we were picked up and taken to the YWAM base there where we stayed for a week, doing a couple days of ministry as well! The base is so nice with running water and showers and a pool, etc. We did a day of evangelism in town where we went door to door at th edge of the market and got to pray over some families and teach some kids worship songs! Then we had kids ministry the next day with 84 kids coming to learn about God.

After Blantyre, On Friday we moved on in a 4 hour (turned 6 hour) bus ride to Lilongwe, Malawi, and met with a different YWAM base and are staying in Zalayka, a refugee camp an hour north of Lilongwe.

It’s been a few days and we are having the most live changing experiences. That’s all the Time I have for now but I’ll try to update you guys again later! We’ll be here for another 2 weeks.

Hugs from Zalayka Malawi!!
