Malawi Ministry-Malawi Orphan Care Project
June 2024
Amy LaPierre Mission Trip
I have been blessed with the opportunity to travel to Malawi, Africa to visit the Orhan Care Project. I will be joining a group of 5 others from Illinois, including Andy and Joy Jones. The trip will be from June 2nd – June 18th. While there, we will be visiting the Orphan Project and ministering to the kids and women. We will lead Vacation Bible School for the over 800 children. We will be taking the women volunteers to the Lake for a day of thanks and appreciation for work they do feeding the kids. We will also visit the farm site, a market in the city, attend 2 church services in Malawi, and go on a safari. We are also bringing many gifts for the women and children in Malawi. Each woman volunteer will get a bible in their local language and a handheld corn shucker. Each high school student will get an English bible and solar calculator. We are bringing 24 soccer balls to distribute and 2 table top corn shuckers to leave at the project.
I am really excited for this opportunity and look forward to serving God to the people and children in Malawi!
Thank you,
Amy LaPierre

Thank you and update from Shadreck and Yami on behalf of Kanyenyeva Ministries

Dear abusa Paul, and brethren at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Crosby
I am writing you on behalf of the children of Kanyenyeva, the women volunteers who cook and take care of the children, the board members, and everyone involved in the ministry of Kanyenyeva.
Today, is a day you are having another Manna for Malawi event.
We want you to know that we greatly appreciate and do thank God for all the efforts and the assistance you give us. But we are so taken by surprise and our hearts are full of cries of joy. We know the situation you are going through in the US because of COVID-19. Many things have come to a halt including many businesses. Even in Malawi, a lot of businesses have closed. Hospitals are full of patients and yet there are not enough workers.
We would have understood if you decided not to have the Manna for Malawi event this year. But you have gone ahead with the program even during a season like this. Your love for us is evident, and your kindness is beyond our understanding.
Thank you so much for what you are doing. We hold our hands at Kanyenyeva in prayer; thanking God for you and praying that God will again manifest Himself during this year’s Manna for Malawi.
We are so thankful to everyone who will take part. You must know that for us, this is not just an event, you are literally saving lives.
The situation in Malawi at the moment is worse. We have had CORONA cases on the rise and it is worse in the villages where there is no help at all. This has made it even more difficult for the people in the village to find food.
Therefore we do not take this as a small thing. Words are weak and not enough to express our gratitude to you.
May God bless each one of you and may God take care of your needs in Jesus name.
In Christ,
Shadreck and Yami
On behalf of Kanyenyeva Ministries.
