… PRAYER FOCUS: MALAWI

     At the Ekwendeni College of Nursing (ENS) interviews are taking place over the next few weeks for the new intake of students for the College.  Also, over the next couple of weeks some third year students at College are repeating their final exams.  If the students fail to pass their exams this time, they will have to repeat a full year of study.  Pray for the Principal of ENS, Mr Nkandwe and the Deputy Principal of ENS, Mphatso Nguluwe, as they have a busy workload with both the interviews and exams taking place.  Pray for the students who are doing their re-sits; that all their hard work will pay off!

    

Shirley Stronge who completed her service at ENS in November and returned home to Northern Ireland is currently engaged in deputation.  Give thanks for the opportunities Shirley will have over the next few months to share her experiences about the work she undertook in Ekwendeni Hospital and Nursing School.

We will remember in our prayers, the leaders and young people in our Youth Fellowship.
