^ PRAYER FOCUS:
On Wednesday 22nd
October, Dr Ngwira, the Health Co-ordinator for the Livingstonia Synod CCAP, was attacked and abducted by an
armed gang near to his house in Mzuzu. A new 4x4 vehicle (donated to the Synod by an
overseas partner for use by the Msumbe Health Project
in Chitipa), which Dr Ngwira
was driving, was stolen by the gang. Dr Ngwira was released at Nkhorongo
some eight miles away from Ekwendeni. He was badly beaten up but is slowly
recovering as he receives treatment in hospital in Ekwendeni. Give thanks that he was not more critically
injured and pray that he will make a full and quick recovery, not just
physically but also mentally.
