Editor’s June 2010
It is all change at the top!! I mean politics of course. I hope and pray that those who look after our country will do so wisely and look after those who are vulnerable. I notice that one Council was proposing to cut out having prayers at the start of their Council meetings as we do in Walsall. I would oppose any such move here. We live in a Christian Country and while respecting the feelings of other faiths, starting the day or a meeting with a prayer is very appropriate whether this be the start of a school day or a Council meeting. What do you think?
A chance meeting with the head of a major international packaging firm has resulted in a potential major support for action in Malawi. Explaining our work in providing water wells, cataract and cleft operations and reduction in child dental decay rates, it looks likely that a partnership will provide a programme in Malawi. We have also had the offer that a top heart surgeon from Birmingham will go over and help train surgeons there to diagnose cardiac cases that can be easily operated on successfully. I do believe God puts opportunities in our path, gives us the support if we take that opportunity using the skills He has given to us.
We have this month also supplied a simple motor bike to the project in Niger as this is expanding requiring quite a bit of travel between the various locations of the new fields of crops for the agricultural adviser.
More news next month and you can follow on
