Public preaching in Chitumbuka, translating into the Chichewa language covering two of the most commonly spoken languages in Malawi.

Dear Saints,

We hope and trust you are well. The past two months have been interesting to say the least. We were sent out of the church which my dad and mom (Ron and Mary Robinson) started, Northstar Baptist Church, in 2008 to go to Malawi to preach the gospel. At that time the Assistant Pastor of the church was Bro Daniel Grotke. He was among those who were the first to “believe in” our calling and was instrumental in supporting us as we got started in the work. It was those who were closest to us who were our heaviest supporters and who God used to make it possible for us to go. Since that time the Lord called brother Grotke and his family to go and minister in the country of Norway. They were sent out of our home church and have now been there for the past few years. The Lord has seen fit to bless their work there to the point to where they were desirous to get involved in foreign missions. Amazingly, our sending church, and those who have been supportive since day one, once again got together and raised the funds for our family to be able to go and spend ten days holding some “Missions Emphasis” Sundays in Norway teaching about missions as well as presenting the ministry in Malawi to the congregation there. What an incredible and humbling experience it was to be able to encourage this young congregation in the right ways to be involved in world-wide missions work. Please pray that the Lord would bring to pass some of the plans which were committed to the Lord during that time. There is a good group of folks there and they genuinely desire to take some missions trips and support some foreign missionaries. PLEASE PRAY that the Lord would lead them in the steps to come so that they will truly fulfill what the Lord is leading them to do.

From there we were back in the saddle with the ministry in Malawi. We are continuing to go as far as we can with the Light Baptist Church building project. The project is going amazingly well! It is (so far as I know) the only Independent Baptist Church building which has ever been built in Malawi that is DIRECTLY on the M1 main north to south road in the county. It has been a miracle of sorts since the day we were able to buy the plot. Although the building is not finished yet we have decided to go ahead and hold services in the main auditorium while we plug away with the project.

Charity Baptist Church Choir helping us in a public outreach.

Charity Baptist Church continues to do very very well. Pastor Nyirenda is a great pastor and loves the people who he ministers too. His love for the Lord and for the scriptures continues to compel him to go forward in the ministry. This church has long outgrown their building, and desperately needs to move. As of right now we can see the problem but we have no absolute clear direction from the Lord on what to do about it. Please pray with us. There is a building in Mzuzu that I have been praying about for years and years now. It would be a perfect place to be as a church. I have been telling the men that I work with here for years that the Lord is going to give that building to Charity Baptist one day. Recently I noticed that the building was chained shut and was informed that the owner wanted to sell it. I haven’t even asked the prices or details yet. I am asking for YOUR prayer for God to show HIS will and show HIS hand strong. Please pray with us about this.

Due to the particular context of fraudulent Malawian “pastors” that I met early on in the ministry here, the Lord showed me to NOT financially support the men who I worked with in the ministry. This was totally against S.O.P. in third-world missions work but it has proven to be one of the best decisions I made early on in the ministry. As opposed to riding the missionary gravy train style ministry, the men who would work with me would be destined to be “first proved”, before holding a position of leadership in the church. These men have learned to “work with their own hands” to feed their families and have struggled to make ends meet as they have ministered to the congregations that the Lord has planted. This is not to say that I have not helped them and their families on many occasions, but it was a statement to the community to let people know that we take church leadership seriously and that you need to PROVE your work in the ministry just as many of our supporting church pastors have had to do as their congregations develop.

Times have changed. According to the work load that the Lord has for us to do here, their working will soon become a hindering factor to what the Lord has us doing together. Although the men all pastor different churches, we have discovered that some of the work of the Lord's work is best done through joint efforts. It is fulfilling these efforts that now consume much of our time these days. Now we constantly find ourselves working around schedules and such in order to make time to fulfil the work that the Lord has given us to do. Although the churches continue to grow in number, the people are still citizens of the second poorest country in the world (Malawi). In spite of the growing congregations, the financial ability to fully support their pastor remains a challenge.

Brother Mwandilire’s trained evangelistic skit team draws a crowd of a few hundred in a hurry before turning them over to us for preaching.

We have recently been praying as a group over the subject of possibly traveling to the USA and having these men preach in the churches there. In doing so, I have all confidence that the Lord would use these men to be a GREAT encouragement to you churches in the states, as well as lend opportunity to them being able to be at least partially supported.

I have done enough things in my life to know that efforts are only worth acting on if GOD is the author and fulfiller of the effort. Please pray with us about this situation. I believe that time is short before the Lord’s coming and that I need these men to be able to work with me on a daily full time basis. Again, there are no concrete plans in place, and we need the LORD to move in this matter.

Speaking of recent efforts, thousands of gospel tracts went out at our local open air preaching services, and we saw five souls come to Christ on one occasion. At a different location there were fifteen teens who came forward to receive Christ. We praise the Lord for you all loving the Lord enough to give these folks a chance to hear the glorious gospel of grace!

We are only days away from the next Campaigns for Christ effort. This time around we will be holding all the distribution efforts and preaching efforts in the Capital City of Lilongwe. We will be attempting to distribute between 150,000 and 250,000 copies of John & Romans at three different locations around the city. We are holding the public preaching meetings at the nearest open grounds to the different churches that brother Mike Fleuch (an Independent Baptist Missionary) started years ago. The hope is to draw attention to the Independent Baptist Churches that already exist in that area. Hopefully it will be an encouragement and an example to those congregations.

We covet your prayer for the lost souls who will attend the preaching meetings. Pray for the preachers, pray for the personal workers, pray for the weather, pray against the wiles of the devil, and pray for the folks who have selflessly raised the funds to come with Campaigns for Christ to come and strengthen our hands in the work.

Family hike to the top of the nearest mountain in our area!

On the home front, the family is doing fine. I appreciate your ongoing prayers over our family and children. We are so incredibly blessed to have our quiver full, and it is a joy to see them growing into godly young people for the Lord.

Thank You For Reading & Praying!

May the Lord bless you for your interest and prayer for our family and the people of Malawi Africa

New Life Baptist Church (Church Plant)

Visit Our Website

Dear Praying Saints,

Psalms 7:17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.

We hope and trust that this letter finds you well and serving the Lord in his perfect will for your life. I wanted to send you all a quick word of thanks and a Happy New Year! In this prayer letter I have outlined our most concerning prayer needs. Many years of working in Malawi Africa has taught me that it is YOUR prayers that have been effectual to carry us through. We can’t thank you enough for holding the ropes in prayer for the ministry.

(1) Wisdom and divinely opened doors as we handle the subject of our older children in their life directions. Our children need encouragement and hope in their lives. Mzuzu, Malawi is an incredibly difficult place for American Teenagers to live. I do not expect you to fully understand this subject in its entirety, just trust and know that it is a subject of great concern in our lives. We NEED your prayer for God to open up GREAT direction & opportunities for our children who have grown up in this third culture context. They have been so faithful and such a vital part of the ministry here. We are asking the Lord to open doors for them as they are thinking of the next steps in their lives.

(2) Light Baptist Church building project. We are still pushing on a daily basis to progress on this building project. We thank you all so much for making it financially possible for this building to be here.

(3) Revelation from the Lord to my heart and mind to know how to more effectively serve the Lord and help the people of Malawi. We thank the Lord, he has used us for to establish Biblical Christian Faith in the lives of those who have accepted the truth through us. However, I constantly feel that there must be something that I am missing in order to see a much greater movement of the grace of God here in this country. Please pray that the Lord would reveal to me through his word and by his spirit, exactly what I need to do as a missionary to win more people to God and to help them to convert from their misplaced values to understanding God's authority, his precepts, and his perfect ways.

(4) The strengthening of the churches which are newly planted but they are still weak and still in need of much prayer and input. I need adequate time and resources to effectively minister to them for their growth.

(5) The establishment of an ongoing way to fund the physical needs of the Malawian Churches from within Africa. Finances are a very real part of any real missions work. My dream is to see the churches and pastors become completely self-sufficient without depending on money from churches in foreign countries.

Elaboration on Prayer Request # 5

There is no doubt that our family as well as the church leadership here in Malawi GREATLY appreciate the sacrificial giving of our Bible Believing Independent Baptist Churches and individuals around the world. Without your financial help the ministries here in Malawi could have never been established. However, as we move forward, and we see the Malawian Pastors take on an increasingly major role in the actual ministry leadership, we need to be careful to NOT create a culture of “dependency” on foreign funding for ongoing progress in the ministries. The problem with ministry finances here is that we live and operate under one of the most wicked, tyrannical governments on the face of planet earth. I do not say that lightly, ignorantly, or irreverently. I do, however, say it factually and experientially. I say it with the utmost honour to the Malawian government where it is due and with no intentions of rebellion whatsoever. Outside of how they devastate the lives of our flock, I have nothing personally against them all. In fact, they are simply doing what wicked men do when they are in positions of power and authority. Proverbs 29:2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.

The fact is that there has never been a proper establishment of a government which produced a prosperous condition of life in this country since its conception in 1964. This is not slander, this is fact. The plight of the common people who live under such a government and who attend the churches, is genuinely heart wrenching. It is nearly as challenging for the average American person to actually understand the role which government plays in their generally prosperous way of life, as it is for an average Malawian family to feed itself. Here it takes all of a man’s strength, wit, and determination, just to get food for his family that day. Giving financially in the local church requires faith ANYWHERE, but here in Malawi, giving in a manner which would be adequate to actually fulfill the needs of the ministries of the local churches is seemingly impossible. While the short term answer may seem to be that we should just ask the believers in the USA, to help fund these projects, we also need to consider the long term effects of employing such strategies.

We must ask ourselves and more importantly, ask the Lord…What HIS strategy would be. What kind of mentality would develop in the churches if we utilize that methodology? Is it really what the believers here are in need of? Do African believers REALLY need to be encouraged to have their hand permanently extended, waiting on the next financial donation to come from the USA? Is that really a “renewed” mindset? Is it good for the church leadership to deepen into the culture of DEPENDENCY as they lead the way forward in their INDEPENDENT Baptist Churches? Obviously, for now, we need to work in the context of what is available.

Since there is no other option on the table, we depend highly on finances to be sent from other countries to fulfill nearly every project and evangelistic effort. Dependency however, is NOT a good long term solution. It will not be sustainable for the churches in the future. I am bringing this matter up as a subject to pray over because it is time to consider what will unfold here for these churches and ministries should the Lord tarry his coming.

My understanding of Missions Work is easily seen if we look at the idea of a scaffolding system in the construction industry. For major building projects, scaffolding systems are a highly technical, well engineered part of the project. Just the scaffolding system itself can be an enormous cost and is very technical in its installation. However, no matter how great the scaffolding system is, and no matter how necessary and helpful it is while the building is being built, none of us would expect the scaffolding system to be a permanent part of the building. Likewise, in my calling of missions work, the goal is to build the believers and the ministries up in such a way that there should be very little, if not NO dependency at all in the future. Paul said it like this…1 Corinthians 3:9-10 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. Two of the churches are very much self -sustaining in every way, spiritually and financially, however, unless I do something differently in the future than I have in the past, this makes for incredibly SLOW church planting.

As the years of missions work have unfolded here, the subject of future sustainability has been increasingly on my mind. After years of consideration, the root problem is quite simple and the solution is simple as well. The root problem of the impoverished churches is the fact that Malawian Christians have no way to lead a, “quiet and peaceable life” due to extreme wickedness in high places. Unless a solution is brought in which would help earn the money to provide for their churches needs, the future is grim. They must actually employ the scripture which says, Ephesians 4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

Please bear in mind that we are not concerned with beautiful chandeliers, ornate tapestries, breathtaking decorations, or stained glass windows. When I refer to the needed physical things, I am talking of simple buildings to meet in, simple benches to sit on, adequate fuel for the vehicles so that the preachers can go and preach and such like things. Whatever money needs to be made to do the work of God must be made in a godly way so that the reputation of these men is not damaged along the way. WE NEED YOUR PRAYER! I mention this subject as a prayer request because it plays such an influential role in the ministries here. With dedication, hard work and faith, I am praying that the Lord would show us what to do as ministry leadership.

Every week the pastors of all the churches, the evangelists, the deacons, and all the men in leadership come together to pray over this matter. This is because it is the single most pressing and hindering matter to the ministries of TRUTH here in Malawi. I share this burden with you all in order to ask for PRAYER. Here in Malawi a very good foundation of Biblical Christian faith has been established. Many hours have been spent with the leaders of the churches, praying over and considering the subject of how the ministries are to be funded moving forward. We are highly considering the possibility of these men opening a high standard private school or running some other kind of company from which the money generated would be able to supply the needs of the ministries. We are sharing our greatest burden with you all so that you can help us in prayer to ask the Lord to open a way of funding for the ministries from here within Malawi. Our God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He can be trusted. His arm is not short and he CAN furnish a table in the wilderness. Pray with us about this issue please.

Light Baptist Church Building Update

Thankfully, the Light Baptist Church building project has been going very very well. Thank you to each of you who have prayed for it. Although it may seem to be going in slow motion if compared to how quickly things can move along in the USA, given all of the challenges here, we feel like we are soaring on eagles wings!

In addition to the usual challenges, the whole country has had no fuel in the filling stations for over a month. I mean none at all. It's every man for himself to figure out how to keep some fuel for his vehicles. When a fuel tanker does make its way to Malawi the wild wild west rat race begins with vehicles pushing their way from every direction towards the pump.

I have managed on a few occasions to get the vehicle full when fuel comes in but it is a two and a half hour ordeal every time, and I'm still not sure it's worth the BP. Naturally the transportation of materials has become a real challenge. We still have miles to go on this project so please just say a word of prayer over it as we continue ahead.

We are very thankful for your support in this Church building as clearly it would be impossible without your generosity. Just as inflation has hit the USA hard, the same is true in Malawi. I mentioned in the last letter that there was a significant increase in the cost of everything which will definitely have an effect on the completion of the building.

I remember being at several missions conferences in the USA where, by the grace of God, huge financial sums were raised for foreign missions. I encourage you pastors and churches who are blessed to have been able to raise such amounts to let there be an application of those finances here. May the Lord direct you in what to do. 2 Corinthians 8:11/ 1 John 3:18

What a privilege it has been to host and work with The Campaigns For Christ ministry here in Malawi. From the first day that I found out about this ministry I was absolutely impressed with the focus and the faith which was being exercised. These are the kinds of efforts which are greatly needed in our churches.

The primary work is to get tens of thousands of copies of the book of John and Romans into the hands of people in a particular area and then at the same time give them a printed invitation to come to and attend an evangelistic preaching meeting.

Since Campaigns for Christ did all of the hard ground work of organising the trip, other brothers and sisters who ARE called to “GO '' but are NOT called to “STAY" forever on the field, had the opportunity to come and serve in a very real way in foreign missions. I FOR ONE SAY PRAISE THE LORD for such faith!

Having done all the necessary groundwork to accommodate a team, Campaigns for Christ extended an open invitation to Bible Believing Independent Baptist Church members all across the USA. The application requires a statement from the pastor of the particular local church and thus lone rangers and quacks are primarily filtered out. The group who came were a GREAT blessing to my family and I, and were a tremendous help to the work.

Indeed it really was an act of faith. Far from being vacation-like, these folks were on the street WORKING for several hours every day. They walked for miles, stood in the sun and toted heavy backpacks full of John & Romans all over Mzuzu.

They toughed it out without water and electricity for half the time, ate food they were not used to, and faced many challenges in order to fulfill the work. They truly strengthened our hands in the work!

Their very presence felt like a shock wave ripping through the whole town. Everyone everywhere in the whole area had a keen awareness that GOD was doing something in Mzuzu!

Foreigners tend to stick out like a sore thumb “around these here parts” and this group was no exception, each of the Campaigns for Christ volunteers were linked up with Malawian brothers and sisters in Christ to go out and work in small teams of six to eight. All in all, combining the Campaigns For Christ folks and the volunteers from here we ended up being around one hundred and ten folks out on the streets on a daily basis.

We passed out the literature, we sang in public, we had open air preaching, and these all culminated in some amazingly blessed evangelistic crusade meetings. WOW! THANK YOU FOR PRAYING! God has done great things among us!

Collectively we passed out 100,000 copies of John & Romans, 100,000 invitations, we had a few thousand folks attend the preaching meetings, a few hundred people who made a first time profession of faith, and we are busy working through a follow up list of over two hundred names and numbers of people who registered for discipleship course.

After the efforts were over we have had several first time visitors in the local churches, a few folks who have joined, and in at least some cases, there are people who have not missed a service since then!

Obviously there were a million logistical challenges to mobilizing that many people to, not just attend a meeting or sit and listen to preaching, but to be actively doing the work of ministry in a foreign country.

These folks got dropped off as small teams in locations all over the area and then had to navigate their way to certain predetermined points. Due to the weight of the literature and the volume being distributed, it was a major challenge just to keep all the troops supplied while they worked.

Leadership Team Left to Right: Brother Jason Sadek, Chris Madiasi, Pastor Alex, Myself, Pastor Daniel, Evangelist Mark Anthony, Brother Dave Darling

Click the picture above to see a recap video for this years campaign.

Keeping everyone rested, fed, mobilized, and encouraged gave our host leadership team lots of opportunity to learn how to do it better next time! I thank the Lord for what these folks did and how flexible they were to allow us to sort of mesh ideas to make it effective here in this field. Overall God just decided to use these folks in a major way and I pray that they continue in their ministry vision.

If you happen to be a missionary reading this letter, you may consider contacting brother Darling to see if they may be able to come to your country as well. In accordance with how the Lord leads you, and the realities of your particular field, it could be very helpful. Again, if you are a Bible Believing Independent Baptist pastor in the USA, I encourage you to consider Campaigns for Christ as a regularly supported missions ministry. Please remember Brother Dave Darling, Pastor Stevans, and Brother Sadek in your prayers as they continue to lead that ministry. They desperately need our prayer in order to do this work.

Coordinated Efforts

Thanks to your generosity, in addition to the USA volunteers we were also able to transport, and host a number of local Malawian participants. The local participants were mainly made up from the folks from the local churches here in Mzuzu, Bible Institute students and other Independent Baptist Local Church Pastors from different parts of the country.

This gave us a “training ground” opportunity on how to conduct future coordinated efforts while simultaneously establishing a healthy sense of respect for the mutual independence of each ministry represented.

While these mutual efforts are somewhat “normal” in other parts of the world, they are altogether non-existent here in Malawi. In the USA it is fairly normal for “Camp Meetings' to be a conglomeration of churches & pastors from near and far who come together for a meeting while remaining very much independently governed in their own ministries. Missions conferences, youth camps, and preacher meetings are just a few examples of how the Independent churches mutually benefit one another in other countries. NO SUCH MEETINGS EXIST IN MALAWI & THEY NEVER HAVE.

The evangelistic effort of Campaigns for Christ provided a neutral opportunity for these national pastors to learn the ropes of coordinated ministry efforts and it also provided ample opportunity for these men to simply get to know each other. They were encouraged to set up future plans for preaching in each others churches, as well as sharing particular burdens with each other in prayer. I have already heard of at least a few of the men who met at the evangelism, preaching for each other and enjoying very blessed meetings since that time.

Fellowship Baptist Church

Psalms 133:1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

I mentioned in previous letters that I had several men who were in the Bible Institute up in the Chitipa area who were historically Pentecostal preachers. I mentioned that some of them were at a serious crossroads of faith due to being exposed to true biblical doctrine for over a year and a half now. One of those young men was able to come to the Campaign effort.

He had mentioned to me a while back that he no longer preaches any Pentecostal false doctrine and that he only preaches the truth in the church which he is responsible for. He went on to say that he was convinced that he needed to leave the Pentecostal churches all together and follow the truth, but that he wasn’t exactly sure how to go about it. I told him to be patient and that if he was very serious, and willing to undergo plenty of opposition, then God would show him what to do, and when to do it. We prayed about it for several months and I asked you all to pray for him as well.

During the time he was with us on the streets I could see that he was really fired up and that he had been greatly encouraged by what he was experiencing. I gave him the opportunity to give a testimony during one of the testimony services. He said that there were many things which had impressed him about the Independent Baptist Churches since he began to know us.

He mentioned that first of all, that we indeed have the right doctrine. He went on to say that we also have the right exaltation of the scriptures and that we were more humble than any other group he had seen. He said that the very most impressive and compelling thing he had seen was our fellowship and genuine care for one another. He was so impressed by our willingness to work with each other as equals instead of everyone trying to “lord over'' others. He said that he has been praying and searching for the truth for years and that he is 100% sure that he has finally found it. He then declared publicly that he will resign from the Pentacostal church and that, as of then and there, he is no longer any part with Pentecostals; he is an Independent Baptist!

I asked him later on how it went back in the church he had been a preacher in for years. The “Head Bishop” was a woman and, as I had imagined, they all but tarred and feathered him and his family. They shamed him and his family for his association with the “white heretic” (yours truly). He simply said that he knew it was coming, and that the truth was worth it. He is a natural born preacher and he immediately asked me if he could go ahead and start holding services in their sitting room at their house because people need to know the truth! He named the church Fellowship Baptist Church because it was the fellowship which he had never seen before that sealed the deal in his heart. What a testimony to God’s truth and his ways.

As of now, they are holding services in his home while they look for a space to rent. He has a genuinely humble attitude and is requesting to be further taught by Pastor Daniel and Pastor Alex here in Mzuzu, as well as myself. I am thankful that he has examples to look to now in terms of pastoring a Bible Believing Church. Pastor Alex and Pastor Daniel are both men of great faith and they love the Lord and his people. I must say that I am excited about this development in the Lord's work and I covet your prayers over this man and his family as well as the work of faith which is underway there in that area. His name is John Nkisi.

In Closing

Psalms 34:14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

There are a good number of Malawian Pastors and church members all over the country who are greatly encouraged to be a part of these evangelism efforts. Please pray that the Lord will continue to establish a spirit and attitude of cooperation as we continue to try and strengthen the churches and pastors here in Mzuzu and around the country. Thank you all once again for your sacrificial prayer and support to enable us to do this work.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Thank you once again for taking a few minutes to read this letter and hear more about what all is going on around here. We have a lot on our plate right now and we earnestly covet your prayer for what all is happening during this time. In this Prayer letter we would like to update you on:

1) Light Baptist Church Building Progress

2) Chitipa Graduation

3) Upcoming Campaigns For Christ Evangelism Campaign

Light Baptist Church Building

Several months ago we attempted to start on the building of the new LBC church building. Those efforts were heavily thwarted by both natural weather disasters, as well as internal struggles in the ministry. While flash floods wiped out entire sections of the M1 (main trade road going north to south through Malawi), the enemy was also busy ripping one of our most prominent young preachers out of the church and ministry. I will forgo mentioning his name in this letter because I believe deeply in my heart that he will one day be restored into fellowship and a Lord willing into the ministry in spite of having personally wounded me and our ministry deeply. (In Malawi we as Bible Believing Independent Baptist, still have to focus on forgiveness and restoration. We will necessarily need to do so until we have enough spare IBC soldiers to afford the process of biting and devouring one other, possibly if the Lord blesses and lots of Churches get established we may also be able to start the other tactics… for now we are still far too few;-)

I will spare you the details of his desertion. just know that he is one of the most talented & promising young preachers who has been around our ministry for several years. His calling is real and his gifting is not doubted, but unfortunately he was lifted up in pride and made some ignorant mistakes. Since then he has apologised and now he is faithfully attending church again. He not permitted to do anything besides show up, shut up, and sit still until he is told what to do. As of now he is patiently being disciplined. If he continues as such it will be a blessing to have his help in the ministry again. Please pray that he will be fully repentant and then fully restored. I would love for him to once again be profitable to the Lord & to me for the ministry.

His sudden departure from the ministry without notice caused many practical hiccups on our internal “organizational” structure. This necessitated me spending a great deal of time having to start from scratch training new office personnel.

Once the weather came right again and we got ourselves sorted out, the progress on the building has been AMAZING! All I can say is that “little is much, when God is in it”. In the midst of all the busy, I haven’t done a good job of keeping you all up to date better on the progress. I encourage you to pray for me about the subject of staying in better touch with everyone. I am “as one born out of due season” when it comes to all things social media as well as all things “instant updates”. I know that I need to do a better job and would appreciate your prayer in this.

Overall, The building project is going well and we can not say THANK YOU enough, for the offerings which have gotten us this far! We are getting ready to start on the roof at this point after which we expect the funds to be exhausted. This is not necessarily due to miscalculation of the budget as much as it has to do with sudden changes in the Malawi economy.

Prices of Fuel and commodities were hiked by 45% overnight without notice. Everyone in Malawi who has a phone got a message saying that fuel and goods are increased by 45% effective immediately. Supposedly this is due to the world financial situation. Those details are way above my pay grade to know why these things happen. What we know for sure is that it happened. This obviously took a huge toll on how far we could go with the money that came in for the project. Furthermore it had an effect on how far our ministry support could go to supplement carrying the project forward. We essentially lost a huge percentage of our support overnight.

We are not worried, we are trusting the Lord to provide for his work according to his will. As of now, we expect that we will need around $14,000 more to finish the building. We are way to far committed to do anything else but keep barreling FORWARD!

In spite of the financial setbacks, I remain VERY excited about this building. The core men who are leading this church have been prepared and faithful to me and to our ministry for over 10 years. In many ways, this will be a time when their faithfulness which has been in secret will be rewarded openly.

Pastor Alex Mwenekifungwe & His right hand man Charles Kalinde and their spouses.

Amazing Progress!!!

Lord willing this building will help them to teach many more people the TRUE doctrine and practice of scripture. People from around the community stop daily to tell us that they are going to be with us in our services as soon as we start meetings there because they see the miracle which has happened with this building! Thanks for your continued prayer and support in this area.

Bible Institute, Chitipa Graduation

Over the years, our Bible Institute has adapted to become “available” to anyone who is dedicated and faithful enough to go through the classes. Part of what this means is that we provide regionalised classes to groups all over the north of the country.

Although we have already purchased land and have plans to build dorms to accommodate the students, we have still not yet managed to build the dorm facility which we expect to cost around 30,000usd.

Based on the principle of Galatians 6:6, It is my desire to have ALL of our ministries to eventually become self-sustaining, and while we do have a “fee” as one of the requirements, for now, we are still in the phase of applying 2 Corinthians 11:8. The reality is that 100% of the costs for the Bible Institute still come directly from our support and in essence from what YOU send.

For now we are still traveling to different regions to provide classes in those areas. The battlefront in “the Chitipa theater” has been costly but because of the grace of YOUR giving, we have managed to complete our first round of efforts in that remote location. I want to thank you for enabling us to do so. We initially offered the classes to anybody and everyone who wanted to join. We expected to have around five or six people who would half- heartedly make it through the first few lessons and then maybe end up with one or two fellows who made it all the way through. Instead, to our surprise, we had over sixty people register, out of whom forty-five started classes, out of the forty-five pastors who started, twenty-five have just graduated the first set of classes. Out of the twenty-five students who graduated eight of them are inquisitive as to how we can work together to start some Independent Baptist Churches in their respective areas. Although thus far, only one IBC has been started in that region, we are very excited about these prospects of potential ministries. Please remember that we NEED your prayer as we must be sensitive to the leading of the Lord in these things.

We all had such a great time of fellowship at the graduation. There were student speeches, Popcorn Preaching, and special singing.

Campaigns For Christ Malawi Evangelism 2022

We are very excited to have brother David Darling coming over with his group of volunteers to help us pass out 100,000 copies of John and Romans along with 100,000 invitations to attend scheduled preaching meetings. Simply put, we need prayer. This is not the kind of thing that usually happens twice in any given town, let alone Mzuzu Malawi! This is going to jolt this little village-town for sure and we believe it is going to be an amazing opportunity for folks to get saved. Please pray for the Lord to fill the preachers and the preaching. Pray that those souls who have been convicted of their sin would yield to the drawing and wooing of the Holy Spirit. Pray that some of the other christians in the area would see the good work. Pray that some would decide to separate from their apostate ministries and get themselves into Bible Believing Independent Baptist Churches around Mzuzu and get rooted and grounded as they ought to. Pray for physical safety and that the powers that be would not hinder in any way. Pray Pray Pray!

James 4:14

Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

Greetings Dear Fellow Servants

What a blessing it is to write to you again from a mission field which is still about as open as open gets in 2022. While lockdown measures and wars play a role against foreign mission efforts around the world, we are thankful that doors of ministry remain wide open to us here in Malawi.

Blessed Bible Institute Efforts in Chitipa:

As mentioned in a previous letter, the Lord has opened an incredible door of ministry opportunity to us in Chitipa, the northernmost tip of Malawi. Logistically, it has been a bit of a nightmare to be able to minister there due to the difficulties of travel, accommodations, food, and physical safety. Chitipa is a border area sandwiched between no man’s land Tanzania, no man’s land Zambia, and no man’s land Malawi. Due to the physical location, none of the mentioned countries are concerned to do much governing in the area. Roads are not maintained, there is no more than a vague semblance of a police “force” in the area, and there is no feasible way for the government to control or regulate all the trade, crime and trafficking of goods and persons that happen in the area. Business is done in these areas as though no such governments even exist.

Chitipa, Malawi

Chitipa Google Maps

Official borders, although they may seem “clear” to the casual observer on google maps, do not actually function on the ground in the capacity one may expect. In fact, these borders are being operated just as they did long before the British, French and Germans ever sat in the Belgian and drew circles on maps declaring their “right” to these areas. Borders here are based on languages. Wherever your language stops being spoken, that’s where your border ends. Once you reach the place you can’t hear what the people are saying… that is when you are in someone else’s territory. It’s as simple as that. Once you are in someone else’s territory, if you abide by the rules of that territory you are fine. If you don’t you need to go back to where you come from or be put to death. So as trade goes on through these fluid “borders” people inevitably rip each other off and as one would expect, revenge would be sought.

Surprisingly, shady business rip offs are not as “rampant” of a problem as you may expect. The reason for this may also come as a surprise. The hindrance against crime is specifically because people are aware that Chitipa and its neighbouring district of Karonga is the “headquarters”of witchcraft in this region of Africa.

That Malawi as a whole is in umpteen times worse condition than any of its neighbouring countries is common knowledge to everyone in this region of the world. If you talk to the average Tanzanian, or Zambian, from anywhere in the vicinity and ask them why Malawi is in so much worse condition than their country, they will always respond with two answers. 1) Too much Envy, (Proverbs 27:4 )and 2) “Too much witchcraft”(Deut 18:9-14). They are not wrong. People here do not forgo wrong doing of any kind because they fear any kind of justice system, nor do they forgo crime due to the fear of offending God. It is simple. If they do wrong, they will be killed or plagued through witchcraft.

Of course I realize that most of the “First World” audience of this prayer letter will arrogantly chuckle at the “silly” “superstitious beliefs” of the “ignorant heathen” who think witchcraft is real. I also know that there aren’t enough pages in this letter to convey the REASONS why God commanded witches, dealers in familiar spirits, and sorcerers to be put to death in the O.T. none of which were because, “only superstitious people believe in that stuff. My intention is most certainly NOT to glorify or draw attention to dark spiritual power. However, having worked in this context for many years, it is painfully obvious that it is a very real force to be reckoned with in ministry here.

In any case, Chitipa has very little governance, and absolutely no way to prevent revenge seekers or criminals from coming and going as they please. This absence of governance is certainly felt every time I am there. I have not been there even once without passing by a scene where something terrifically terrible happened in the area. On one of my journeys a man was disemboweled in the night less than 100 meters from where I was sleeping. Another morning on my way to teach I passed by the aftermath of a young boy had been “degroined” (fatal of course) for witchcraft ritual purposes.

One evening as I was about to doze off to sleep five thieves surrounded my “house” and tried to get in. I was startled awake from my dozing by the banging around. I wasn’t as spiritual as many of you, of whom I’m sure would have prayed calmly through the whole situation. Being as carnal as I am, I went into a complete adrenaline rush, and resorted to brandishing my machete through the window and communicating to them in their language, the negative results which would befall them should they successfully make it into the house. Let’s just say I didn’t exactly sleep well that night. The Lord helped me to teach the scripture for over eight hours the following day with no sleep at all. I have had at least one “pastor” leave the institute, and make it his ministry to tell everyone in Chitipa that I am “a Satanic” (whatever that means). Most recently I was sent a message by an unknown person in the area who swears I will not leave Chitipa alive. What a blessing.

Wisdom Needed

As of right now we have twenty-eight pastors who are in the institute. Eight of them have requested me to instruct them on what they need to do in order to “become” Independent Baptist Pastors. I need prayer concerning how to handle these men since I have personally led to Christ, discipled, and trained for ministry all the men who are currently in ministry leadership in our churches.

Preaching In One of These Churches

I have never been involved in rebranding national in order to “grow the work faster” (a tactic which is unfortunately all too common in third world missions all around the world) Fake missions work, driven by the desire for large numbers, has never been my cup of tea. In this situation however, there is a genuine need to handle things in wisdom.

One of the challenges of missions work is that you are always involved in situations where there is no “playbook”. There is no automatic answer and there is no way that I can know what to do outside of God revealing His will in the situation through the scriptures as highlighted by the Holy Spirit.

While many of the student pastors are content to carry on within the conforms of a denomination headquarters, in spite of the truth they have heard, others have come to the conclusion that a radical change in their ministry is necessary.

Some of these pastors who are now waiting on instructions to join our work were the most heated during classroom battles as the doctrine of scriptures was being taught. I have little doubt as to the genuine work of the Lord bringing these men to the point of being willing to give up an established position in a structured denomination, in order to have the liberty to preach and teach the truth. One thing is for sure, if indeed these men are serious, there are some serious trials of their faith which lay ahead in order to depart from falsehood and preach the truth. I need prayer concerning how and when to handle this.

New Church Started

Aside from these men, there is also a man that trained in our institute years ago who has started the first ever Bible Believing Independent Baptist Church to ever be started in the Chitipa region. His name is Pastor Justin Kayange.

Please pray for him, as he faces many challenges to pastor this genuine work of faith. The other Bible Believing Malawian pastors and I are working carefully with him to provide support in every practical way possible. I am blessed to see this brand new church get started and I believe the Lord will bless it.

Light Baptist Church Building Delays

Malawi as a country has faced some serious weather challenges throughout the monsoon season of the early part of this year. Several years ago we built a building smack dab in the middle of the monsoon season. I figured we would be able to do it again, so we initiated the raising of funds, and paperwork with the officials in order to start building the new church building for Light Baptist Church. You all responded by giving over 75% of the needed funding within just a few weeks.

Unfortunately the weather has proven to be too much for us this time around. This is not a case of Prov 20:4/ Ecc 11:4 “he that observeth the wind…”. There has been mass flooding, washed out roads, washed out bridges, broken supply chains and a number of other weather related challenges that have prevented us from really cranking up the progress for this project. So far as we know, we have everything possible lined up in order to start and we expect to do so within the month of April. I can’t thank you enough for the finances which were directed towards this building and I look forward to sharing the progress once we are able to get underway.

Handfuls Of Purpose Everlasting

Some of you may remember the ministry which we started back in 2015 which is called “Handfuls Of Purpose Everlasting”. I don’t mention it alot in my letters because I could never organize it enough for it to solidify into a “real” organization. If the Lord ever gives me the finances and necessary personnel, I would love to see that come to pass. In the mean time while it is not a “big to do”, there are several kids who are in very difficult circumstances who all “eat of my table”. By the grace of God, I select them, sustain them, pay their school fees, uniforms costs, books, transportation, and many other things. I meet with them and their extended family as often as possible and mentor them from the scriptures. I have them memorize Bible verses pertaining to personal salvation, and many other subjects.

Mphatso Memoizing James 4:6

Pray For Him And His Family To Get Saved

New Enablement

Speaking of thankfulness, I am incredibly THANKFUL for the men and women in our Bible Believing Churches that simply act in faith, and put their hard earned money into the genuine needs of missionaries around the world. Such was the case with my transportation needs as of late. During the monsoon season, travel to the villages is extremely difficult. I cannot exactly leave my family without a vehicle when I go to the villages so I usually try to bum rides from one of the national pastors here. Usually this involves pushing a small Toyota hatchback through many Kilometers of knee deep mud, and hiring locals to help us “forge” the bad spots. (Sometimes out in the bush the same locals dig up the road in order to provide a job for themselves the next time a vehicle wants to get through)

Click the Photo To See A Typical Situation

By halfway through the Monsoon season there was only one guy who would still say “yes” when I asked him to take me to the villages. I have spent plenty of time worried about the logistics of how to get stuff done without a proper vehicle that I could rely on.

When a ride is not available I am left in a situation where the only way I could plan my efforts is to walk out of my house with whatever I could carry in my backpack as I use a glorified method of hitchhiking. Usually I can just pay small amounts to various vehicles who are passing by on the way I needed to go. I go as far as they can take me, get out on the side of the road, wait/ walk until another vehicle passed by and eventually get to where I needed to go.

Click Photo

This is obviously not ideal when it's raining, and of course it always puts my Bible and notes at risk of getting wet. Long story slightly shorter, after one particularly long day of traveling to a remote village in such a manner, I got on my knees and plainly asked the Lord if I could have a 4x4 Toyota Hilux. I mentioned to the Lord that He has already given me more than I deserve, and that, I know that He sees the difficulty that is involved with traveling this way. I asked a missionary friend of mine to pray with me on the subject. He really prayed about it with me, shortly after that he was contacted by an anonymous brother in Christ who expressed his desire to help a missionary need. I have no idea on the details of what was discussed or what all happened, all I know is that adequate money was sent within two weeks in order for me to purchase a reliable 4x4 Toyota Hilux! I have already put over 1500 miles on it in the short time I’ve had it! I praise, and thank the Lord, for the brother who did this. May the owner of the cattle on a thousand hills, the creator of heaven and earth, reward him many times over according to his faith. THANK YOU BROTHER!

Vehicle Put to Good Use

I drove that vehicle to a village church where I was invited to preach last week. I preached the gospel and afterwards the pastor called for an invitation to respond to the message. He did a fantastic job of allowing the Holy Spirit to do the work without clouding up the conviction with a bunch of humanistic emotional pressure. Four people came forward for salvation! It was a village church with no piano, no choir, and no coaxing. There was just a Holy Ghost of God sense of conviction and a deafening silence. In a day and age of EMOTIONALISM, I thought all odds were against anyone responding. I was led by the Lord to tell them each to pray in the best way they know how to receive the Lord by calling on him in faith. On their knees they did so one by one. My heart rejoiced and tears filled my eyes as I knew that a few more souls would not suffer the wrath of God and that these folks chose to submit to God's will for their salvation. What a blessing.

The Family

Thankfully we are all doing well. Our last born (Hope)recently got initiated into the Malaria club. It was her first time to get the deadly parasite.

Recently, a business man friend of mine here in town lost his fifteen year old daughter to the same strain. A six year old in our area succumbed to Malaria a few weeks ago as well. Both were otherwise perfectly healthy kids.

In our case, it was several days without sleep, lots of vomiting and all the usual stress of dealing with a potentially dying child which my poor wife has gone through so many times. It’s always worse the first time because each child reacts a bit differently. By now we know the signs for the rest of the family, so we can start administering the proper remedies early on. The Lord is merciful and she is fine now. As soon as there was a case in the house we implemented our normal anti-malarial precautions since it is a mosquito born sickness and there is a high likelihood of further issues.

Charity sleeps in the same room and, not surprisingly, took sick with it not long afterwards. We were able to handle it quickly and she responded well so she bounced back after only three days.

Otherwise most days around here have the kids busy with schoolwork, farm chores, poultry management classes, Taekwondo and boxing training from two hand to hand combat officers in the Malawi Defense Force.

Pray for Joseph to either GET saved or GET RIGHT. He says he is saved but he has no passion to serve the Lord. His Church background is nominal Roman Catholicism. His life is 100% devoted to martial arts. He is a VERY good young man and he is incredibly talented in the fighting arts. He has competed and won medals all over Africa and some in Korea. I need the Lord to open his heart.

Overall we are doing fine because of your prayers. Please don’t ever let go of your end of the rope.

Pray For The Robinsons in Malawi

Condensed Printable Prayer Letter

Greetings!

Dear Brother and Sisters in Christ,

Warm holiday greetings from the warm heart of Africa. We hope and trust you are doing well. We are continually reminded of your care for us and for the work you are enabling us to do. We thank the Lord for you all, and we pray the Lord's richest blessing as your reward. You will only know in glory what all has been accomplished for his names sake here in Malawi through your prayers and support.

We are all doing well and are upholden daily by his grace. We can truly say that though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

Pastor Alex’ Church Building Project

I have a number of things to share with you so let me begin by praising the Lord for Light Baptist Church and Pastor Alex Mwenekifungwe’ family and ministry. As those of you know who follow our prayer letters, Brother Alex got saved back in 2008 and I have been witness of the amazing grace of God in his life, family, and his ministry over the past several years.

In my last prayer letter I mentioned that we were able to purchase a prime piece of property for this church situated along the main road of Mzuzu. We have now started the building process for the church building! We are excited to get this building built and to have church services right along the main road! Having a proper building in a prime location will certainly be a game changer for this church. One of the biggest blessings to me was to see how the brothers and sisters from the other churches have responded to this need from within Malawi. I was blessed to receive several text messages and phone calls from folks here that expressed their desire to help get this building started. In one case, cash was brought to my house and I was told to let pastor Alex know that it was for his church but it is to be given anonymously. All that has been given thus far has been given by those who truly can not “afford” to give. Progress is certainly slow but work is being done in direct proportion to the funding that trickles in.

I mention this here because the situation has become a bit more urgent in the past few weeks. We were all shocked to find that the usual meeting hall which they have been renting was suddenly housing an occupant as we showed up for Sunday morning services! Rental “agreements” are very non-binding here in Malawi and unfortunately for us, the owner of the building decided to erect a house on the property and change the use of the church building. So, without notice Light Baptist has no sure place to meet. Everyone is in good spirits considering the situation and that the monsoon rainy season is just around the corner. They are considering putting up a blue tarp building on the new property until funds become available for construction of a building but decisions are still up in the air. Your prayer for good decisions to be made is greatly appreciated. They need around $35,000 to get into the new building. We are helping as much as we possibly can and are encouraging anyone who may be able to give towards this need to do so as the Lord leads. I can give assurance that, although you have never gotten to meet Pastor Alex, his family or his ministry, they are indeed your faithful Bible Believing Independent Baptist Brothers and Sisters in Christ. I will be happy to pass along any finances that are given for this need and it will be an enormous blessing to this congregation.

Everything demarcated for “Alex Church Building” or “Light Baptist Building'' will go straight into this project. I realize that many of you are not in a financial position to be able to give, we do covet your prayers for this need. Through YOUR prayer, God can and will make the necessary arrangements for the funding of this building. Please mention it to the Lord.

Give Directly Towards L.B.C. Building Project

Open Doors in Chitipa

Through a Mzuzu Bible Institute student, Justin Kayange, the Lord has now opened doors for us to minister in the very furthest northern tip of Malawi. It is a place called Chitipa, and it is situated on a map, directly where Tanzania, Malawi and Zambia converge. Due to its location and history there are over thirty-six completely different languages spoken there. Fortunately, the language that I minister in, Chitumbuka, is still the most common trade language spoken there. For several years I have been making efforts in learning a second language here which I can now hear the majority of, I would appreciate your prayers for my ability to speak it. I think it would broaden our scope of influence if I could eventually preach/ teach in it as well.

The road to Chitipa is no easy one, I am traveling about a six hours drive north of where we live in Mzuzu every two weeks to teach a doctrinal course to around 25 pastors in the Chitipa area. Keep in mind that these “pastors” are not necessarily Independent Bible Believing Baptist. We offered this course to anyone and everyone who wanted to learn the Bible in the entire area. We printed posters, sent letters of invitation, and spread the invitation by word of mouth through the former institute student to the entire area.

It just so happened that the majority of those who registered to become students, happened to be several of the area’s spiritual leaders. This ministry endeavor has me teaching the local spiritual leaders of the area through an institute course focused on SOUND BIBLE DOCTRINE! Let’s just say that our classes can sometimes become very very “lively”! It is truly amazing to watch the word of our God do its work of convincing men of TRUTH. I told the participants at the beginning of the course that I would teach the truth as it stands in the book, and that if it differs from that which they believe, they are welcome to either change their beliefs, or dispute with me in front of all the participants provided things are done decently and in order and that the scriptures would stand as the final authority. The fact is that TRUE BIBLE DOCTRINE can not be refuted by pseudo-spiritual fakers. Ministering on the mission field is quite often standing toe to toe with those who absolutely DO NOT believe the truth. More times than not, it is a hostile environment which resembles the description given in Acts 17:17. This effort is intended to openly challenge the spiritual leaders of the area, and then simultaneously provide an opportunity for folks to choose to submit to the truth.

Acts 17:17 Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.

Having started with forty-two men it didn't take long for some of them to realize that this “focus on truth“ wasn't their cup of tea. I had expected for some of the chaff to blow away as we opened the book, it didn't take long to go from over forty down to twenty-five. I do not only expect to lose students as true colors are shown but I also fully expect to get to know men in the area who want the truth. I have already seen some men who have the attitude of Apollos in Acts 18, who are so incredibly thankful for the TRUE Bible doctrine! I would like to work with Brother Kayange to open an Independent Baptist Church in Chitipa one day if the Lord permits, and if some of the other men desire to preach and teach the truth as it is in scripture, I will do as much as I can for them to help them establish Independent Baptist Churches as well as the Lord leads. Much is in the works already and it is quite possible that we may soon see the Lord open a church in this area through that institute student. Please pray for the Lord to guide this very potentially wonderful church plant situation and to help me in these classes as it really is a challenge for me.

Acts 18:26 And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.

Brother Chatonda’ New Evangelism Ministry

Chatonda Mwangonde from Charity Baptist Church has started an evangelistic ministry which is intended to be a nation wide effort. Chatonda has been mentioned in the prayer letters in the past and I appreciate your prayer for him. He was a young man who I had the opportunity to start working with in 2009. He got saved at a Bible study in 2009 and then jumped into the scriptures and became totally dedicated to the Lord.

Years ago he went to South Africa in search of work with nothing more than the shirt on his back. The Lord richly blessed his integrity and he is careful to give God all the glory for it. He now owns a small logistics company and has a few semi-trucks which carry goods from South Africa to Malawi and back. He is one of the best preachers you will ever have the opportunity to listen to. He is spot on doctrinally, and is absolutely “apt to teach”.

If I could “give him a calling” I would have him pastoring a church in no time. He is confident that he is not called to pastor but that he is definitely called to preach, teach, and win souls. His vision is to “mobilize” doctrinally sound people from the Independent Baptist Churches here to go on short missions trips to areas of Malawi where there are no gospel preaching churches.

It is really amazing to see the Lord at work in his life. Pray for his ministry to really encourage others to participate. For now they are using public transport but he would eventually like to get a 4x4 which will be able to get into areas which don’t have good transportation options. As a missionary, I would not hesitate for a moment to help him with the vehicle if I had the finances to do so. Pray the Lord will provide the right vehicle, at the right time, in the right way.

Visit From Brother Dave Darling With Campaigns For Christ!

Earlier this month we had the privilege of having brother Dave Darling from Campaigns for Christ, come to Malawi for a mission trip. The primary objective of the mission trip was to plan the logistics for a larger mission effort in August of 2022. Lord willing, Bro Darling will lead a team of around 20-25 folks from the USA over to Malawi to distribute 100,000 John and Romans Scriptures. Please pray for that effort as there will be plenty of spiritual opposition to such an endeavor. Find out more about the plan and how best to pray by following this link to his website.

While brother Darling was here, we invited everyone from the Independent Baptist churches around Mzuzu to come for a special preaching meeting. It was really a blessing. After Brother Darling preached the morning services we had dinner on the grounds followed by popcorn preaching and some volleyball matches in the afternoon. There were a few hundred people there and the fellowship has never been sweeter. I praise the Lord for what he did to encourage our hearts on that day.

Young Preacher Stepping Into Ministry!

Brother Kumwenda is a 26 year old young man here who has been around since 2015 or so. He got saved after a Bible study at the mission in 2016 and since then he has grown quite a bit. Before brother Resmondo went to open the Harvest Baptist Church in Zomba (ten hours drive from Mzuzu) Kumwenda had the opportunity to work with him doing some translation work as well as helping in the ministry in various ways. He certainly learned a lot and it is clear that the Lord used that time to teach him many invaluable lessons. He is definitely called to preach, mentally he is sharp, and personality wise he is a natural leader. He strongly desires to start Living Word Baptist Church. I have no doubts as to his calling to pastor.

I am confident that starting a Church is indeed within the Lords will, my concern is timing. I am not sure that it is the right time for him to step into that position. For now, he is helping pastor Banda as associate pastor of Faith Baptist Church in Lusangazi, as well as teaching Bible study classes at the Mzuzu Bible Institute. He is helping me in countless ministry tasks on a daily basis, so for now, I am encouraging him to wait. While for now we are waiting, I am also chomping at the bits to help him get out there and get a church started. Pray for me to be sensitive to the Lord concerning timing and to give good counsel. I do not want to hinder anything by either rushing him into the ministry, or by delaying what the Lord would have him to do. Prayer is needed.

More Precious Souls Saved!

Every time a person get saved, the precious news trickles through our ranks quite naturally, just for the sake of encouragement, and joining the choirs of heaven in praise that another soul has been won! In the last week or two, off the top of my head, I can remember that we had seven saved through public preaching, three were saved on the streets through visitation, one was saved through a gospel tract, one was saved at our daily Bible study. Many many more of course heard the gospel preached. There very well may be more that I haven’t heard of yet. Please continue to pray for the lost here in Malawi.

Thank You All!

Let me close by thanking you all for enabling this work to be done. Our family is the first (that we know of) Independent Baptist Missionaries to ever work in this northern area of Malawi. As of now we are the only ones who are currently working north of the Capitol. It is no small privilege to be sent by Bible Believing Independent Baptist brothers and sisters to labor in the Lord’s harvest.

James 3:13
Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.

Dear Faithful Friends and Supporters,
As many of you know we have made it safely and soundly back to Malawi. Challenges with flight patterns, luggage handling, and jet lag were certainly felt but all in all our travels were blessed.

After one of the busiest times of our existence (furlough), it is good to be back in a place where I can distribute an average of over 450+ gospel tracts per hour! It has been amazing to once again experience ministering to a people who are generally comfortable with the idea that God, indeed exists. In my experience, no matter how far off someone's view of God or deity is, it is almost always more fruitful to deal with someone who at the very least, does acknowledge God as the creator. It is hard to see how far things have drifted in our own country, and to understand the impact that is had by the never ending narrative of atheistic evolution, until you step back out of the first world setting, and speak to common folks about the subject of God. I can think of countless incidents over the past year and a half in the USA, where just the very mention of the subject of the Bible, or Jesus, or church was unfortunately enough to ruin someone’s day! Through these experiences I developed a great admiration for soul winners and personal workers who are still called to win souls in the hard soil of the USA. I Praise the Lord for you and the work that you are doing! Praise the Lord for the faithful pastors who are still in their pulpits, the men and women who are still on the firing line and for the souls still being saved! I truly believe that God calls us, and prepares each of us for the field he desires to use us in.

Getting re-established here in Malawi has been filled with mixed emotions and reality checks. Without a doubt it has made the biggest impact on the older kids. The little ones simply feel that all is well and normal. Jennie and I are well aware of our decisions of faith and we are trusting that the Lord has his purpose in all the ways he directs our footsteps. Joshua and Bekah however, are fifteen and thirteen respectively, and they have faced some very real trials of their faith. It has always been our prayer that our children would neither become bitter at God through their experience on the mission field, nor would they become the typical missionary kid that can’t seem to function later on in normal life. It is our desire to equip them to live by faith wherever God may call them to serve. Thanks be to God who has given them the victory in this transition, they have both handled the transitions like champs! They are truly doing better than I ever would have when I was their age and for that I am grateful. I would ask you to consider their age and all that the enemy throws at a young person at this time of life, and I would ask you to pray that God would continue to move in their hearts to comfort, guide, teach, and keep them. Missionary kids truly face challenges and trials that the rest of us can only observe as bystanders. I realize that it's not just my children who have been called away from “normal life” through the calling of their parents. I believe we would do well to pray for all of the missionaries teens out there wherever they are serving.

I do still strongly believe that it is always best to be wherever God tells you to be and, for us, there is no doubt about where the Lord has us serving for now. Since our arrival here, we have seen amazing doors of ministry opening left and right. The doors of ministry opportunities such as preaching in the churches , door to door visitation, market tracking, public preaching, village to village outreach, and small group discipleship have absolutely FLOWN OPEN. Mzuzu Bible Institute has restarted & I have been preaching or teaching seven days a week. Believe it or not, it has never been easier! The Lord is pouring out his messages and is sustaining the strength!

Last Sunday I preached in Manyamura, a village about three hours from here by motorcycle. I street preached there a few weeks ago, and then some people who happened to be there at the time, subsequently sent an invitation for me to come “formally” and preach in their village. I preached for over two hours to around three hundred people who had gathered to hear. From there I drove my motorcycle from village to village for the next eight hours, preaching publicly in eight different villages! I distributed hundreds of tracts in these places wherever I stopped and returned home exhausted after riding over a hundred miles in sand. Monday morning I didn't miss a beat as I woke up ready to face the building projects which are currently underway at the Lusangazi Mission Station. For those of you who are aware of my health condition, just know that I am praising the Lord every day that I am able to function. I am following the recommended terrible exercises given to me by the physiotherapist and am thankful to be upright!

Our current building project is a security wall which will enclose our hands on technical skills training center. (Carpentry, Electrical, Solar, Etc. ) We are soon to start our first class through a Malawi government certified course in our soon to open “Lusangazi Mission Technical Training Center”. This will be a very “Galatians 6:10'' type of ministry. In this particular aspect of the ministry, I will oversee trainers who will teach through the curriculums which are provided by government for hands on skills training. My objective will be bringing a heavy emphasis on scripture, personal salvation, and personal discipleship throughout the course. I am really looking forward to how this will provide me “side-by-side” time with the students. There is a mix of students in this first class between church members, ministry leaders of the various congregations, and completely lost people. Pray for us to have many opportunities to witness to the unsaved as well as to strengthen the hands of the believers. These skills, if learned and applied, could be a huge help to the families of the churches, as well as to the ministries of the churches.

I would also like to ask for prayer for Mr. James Phiri. After preaching in a church of a pastor I taught several years ago, Mr. James came forward and kneeled in front of the church and prayed one of the most sincere prayers of calling on the Lord I have ever heard. After praying, he testified to the over three hundred people in attendance to his history of being born and raised a Muslim and having “this day, found the truth of salvation which I have been searching for all these years”! What a blessing it is to see another soul brought to the saving knowledge of Christ even in this late hour of the church! I recently received a message that Mr. Phiri has asked me to dedicate some time for further teaching. Please pray for his growth. The pastor NOT mentioned by name here is a man who was indeed called and trained in our ministry several years ago. Unfortunately however, his faith wavered when it came to opening his ministry. Instead of trusting the Lord to provide a way, he opted to minister under the “umbrella“ of a large established denominational organization, which could provide him the “network of support” which he thought was so necessary. I still go and preach there when he asks me to, but I do not consider him one of our churches nor a real part of our ministry. I would have much rather seen him pastoring one of our churches, but the door of our ministry is always open. Open to come in and open to leave . I do not try to “control“ peoples decisions. At least he is doing something for the Lord!

Preaching in all these different churches and villages makes me more appreciative of the churches which the Lord has used us to start from scratch. Since our return I have had the opportunity to rotate through the Bible Believing, Independent Baptist, KJV Churches which God has raised up here in the north of Malawi. I have a genuine appreciation and love for these churches and for the pastors who are standing faithfully in the doctrine which they were taught. Coming back and seeing these men who are faithfully preaching and teaching in their pulpits has been such a reward. In the short time remaining before the Lord comes I want to do all I can do to help these pastors with whatever they need in the ministry. Pastor Daniel Nyirenda just finished discipleship courses with another small group of five people. They decided to have a small “graduation ceremony“ to honor their efforts and they invited me to attend the ceremony and then preach to them. It was really a blessing to see another five people who had been taught through the doctrinal course WITHOUT ME!!!

By God's grace we were able to purchase a prime piece of property for Light Baptist Church directly on the main highway that goes through Mzuzu! It is amazing to have the opportunity to purchase such a property. As a direct result of your faithfulness and support we were able to take action when the property became available. In the past this church had been renting a community building tucked away in the village. Now they are excited to build the church where no one in town can miss it! I am very excited to help them develop the property and get a church building built. By God’s grace, and as you enable us, we will help as much as possible. What a blessing to see a Bible Believing Baptist Church get prime Real Estate!!!

We have so many praises in our short time of being back on the field that it is hard to know where to start and stop this letter. Let me close by thanking all of you once again who made this transition back onto the field possible. You really cannot imagine how our financial needs were met in such an exact way. We were truly able to come back to the field and step right into ministry again. We returned to Malawi with no financial debt, and we were able to purchase a very adequate vehicle upon our arrival. We thank the Lord for your generosity. By God’s grace, we have been serving in full-time mission work since 2006, it is humbling to see the Lord continue to pave the way one step at a time.

Our Vehicle…THANK YOU!!

Thank you for your time in reading & praying!

Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

Greetings and Blessings from the Robinsons

Your Missionaries to Malawi Africa

To everything in life and ministry there truly is a time and season. In many cases we may know what the Lord wants us to do, but it is always a trial of faith to wait for his time to do it. We have been in the States now for longer than we had originally expected, and to us it has seemed TOO LONG! We have trusted the Lord in the matter all along and we have continually presented ourselves before the Lord to seek his face in what he is doing in our ministry and lives.

During our time in the States we have served the Lord with all our hearts as we would in any other physical location. Aside from strengthening the hands of the local churches around the USA, we have been able to financially and prayerfully support many efforts in Malawi through the ministries that have been established over the years. Although we have been doing as much as possible using internet communications and phone calls, I have hesitated to write to the churches frequently simply due to the fact that we have not been on the ground doing the work which we have always done in person.

I am more thankful now than ever before that the Lord raised up good ministers of the gospel in Malawi who have carried on so faithfully in our physical absence. This period of waiting has proven to me that they truly are autonomous, self governing, and being used by God for the ministry of the word! Please keep them in your prayers. Alex, Daniel, Marc Anthony, Nchachi, Chatonda, Goli, Miya, are amongst those who I pray for on a daily basis. The enemy greatly desires to weaken their hands, and their faith, but your prayers WILL strengthen and help them and I covet even just one earnest prayer on their behalf. 2 Corinthians 1:11 Ye also helping together by prayer...

As I mentioned before, timing is everything. There is indeed a time to wait and when the Lord says “Go” there is a time to take action! After a long season of waiting has passed, we are thrilled to let everyone know that the time for us to return to the field HAS BECOME OFFICIAL! April-21-2021 is the day we are set to leave thanks to your prayers and support!

As many of you know, my older brother John is the pastor of Bible Believers Baptist Church in Hillsboro, OR. After knowing of our intention to return to the field for quite some time, and having prayed for us in the matter, he called and more or less asked me “what the hold up is”. I explained the financial restraints that were keeping us from being able to purchase tickets and make other necessary arrangements to return to the field. He asked me if my supporters know of our needs. My response was that the Lord knew and that I hesitate to mention our financial needs in our prayer letters because mission work is littered with “moochinaries” who always “need more money”. After giving me sound counsel on the matter, in his zeal for the Lord, he immediately organized an online fundraising campaign through the local church, (SEE HERE) mentioning that it would allow the saints to “carry us forward” on our journey “after a godly sort”, “lacking nothing”.

We have been blown away to see the Lord’s people step up to help us get back to the field in downright quick order! I told Jennie that we must have been a bigger pain in the backside than we realized because you all are scrambling at the chance to get us out of here! All kidding aside, I believe that most of our supporters know and understand, as we do, that the time is short to work before the Lord comes and that the work must be done while opportunity remains. Within 24hrs we received enough one time support to be able to purchase tickets, and to pull out all the stops to making arrangements to head over to Malawi.

“Excited”, does not even begin to describe how we feel and “thankful” almost seems to be an understatement. Your generosity and care for lost souls around the world makes me thankful to be your missionary and to fulfill my part in your ministry in Malawi. May the Lord richly bless all who are financially making our soon return possible. May he also equally bless those many of you, who I have met over the years, who rejoice with us in the Lord's provision, but don't have the means to give towards this endeavor. I hope you know that we deeply appreciate your prayers for our family and the ministry which the Lord would have us fulfill.

As if this was not hard enough to believe, we recently received a call from one of our supporting church pastors. He informed me that the Lord had given his church some missions funding, and that God put it on his heart to PURCHASE A VEHICLE for us when we get back to the field! I am blown away by what GOD is doing! Most of the time I am not the smartest guy in the room, but even I can see that GOD’s time has come!

After working, believing, and acting as though we had things set in order to go, God has moved and so now we are going. As you know, finances are only a necessary tool to help enable the work of the ministry. The unseen enemies that seek to hinder us from boldly sowing the seed, as we ought and which seek to stop the eyes and ears of the lost masses from the “hearing of the word” must equally be moved out of the way. We are no more able to do that by ourselves than we were able to provide the funds for ourselves. So we go knowing that the spiritual condition of the world-wide atmosphere has changed forever, and that it is more opposed to the gospel of Jesus Christ than ever before. We go with a deeper sense than ever before of our need for his divine protection and the necessity for God to move in the ministries which he will fulfill by our hand.

Please pray for us and, never hesitate to send me specific needs that I can pray for you as well.

Psalms 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

Greetings and Blessings in 2021,

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ. I trust this letter finds you well and still serving the Lord in all sincerity and truth. Looking back over the year of 2020, I see a lot of challenges. Some old and definitely some new, but more so than any challenges, I see the countless blessings of God's goodness towards my family and I. Many thanks to all of you who have been a part of those blessings! Special thanks also to all of you who sent something extra over the holidays. God bless you for your kindness.

Like many of you, we have experienced “changes of plans” and “delays” in our work throughout 2020, but BY THE GRACE OF GOD these things have not caused us to despair. One of the “lessons” God saw fit to teach me many years ago is the lesson of ever changing plans.

I remember how difficult it was to adapt to changing circumstances when I first got to Malawi. When the normal circumstances I had always been accustomed to were no longer available, trying to actually accomplish anything seemed to be nearly impossible. I quickly found out that in a foreign country things as simple as finding a way to buy milk for the kids bottles or just find soap for laundry were a genuine challenge. I could barely believe that just prior to leaving the USA I had owned a construction company doing remodels, new house builds, and any other construction related services, all of which required the ability to “get-er-done”. Being a “newby” in Malawi was incredibly humiliating because I went from being able to assess, estimate, plan, coordinate, and execute very challenging jobs, to feeling like I didn't even know how to tie my own shoes!

At some point early on there, I had finally put together a plan to go and do an outreach in one of the villages. Having jumped through all the necessary hoops, the logistics were finally done. Transportation was figured out, speakers and equipment were figured out, an interpreter was coordinated, tracts were packed, Bibles were ready, the sermon was prepared, souls had been prayed for, banners were printed, meeting location was set, permission was obtained from the chief etc etc etc. I felt like my efforts would pay off and I was excited to see what would happen. What happened was exactly what would happen many times since. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! As soon as we had arrived we were greeted and welcomed very pleasantly only to be informed that someone two villages away had died that morning. The interpreter told me of the loss and I remember feeling sorry for the family and fully expected there to be some setbacks for them. The Malawians who were with me, began to offer condolences and then started back to the truck to return home. Almost expressionlessly, they interpreted to me that the village does not want to offend the neighboring village by “hosting an event” while others are grieving. We would not be holding the evangelism outreach. WHAT??? What about lost souls? What about the plans? What about all my hard work? Did they know what kind of difficulties I had undergone to prepare and plan this? Where was the Lord in THIS? It seemed that nobody cared except me. The main reason that no one seemed to care is because... no one cared except me. I was desperately disappointed and frustrated. As I drove two hours back towards home I was not only frustrated about the canceled evangelism but furthermore, I was disappointed that there wasn't even anyone to be disappointed with me. After a good spell of mully grubbing I concluded that I had to simply trust the Lord with it. There was nothing to do but “suck it up buttercup”. I wish I could say that someone got saved on the way home or that some other great thing happened, but as far as I know that was not the case on that trip.

Although I would face many as equally, and even far more disappointing situations in the years to come, I realized that the Lord is aware of our circumstances and is still in perfect control. This applies even when the authorities we are subject to make decisions that may hinder folks from getting saved. Disappointments and changes of plans had to become part of everyday life if I were going to live and minister in Malawi. After a while I learned that it was absolutely a miracle when ANYTHING actually happened according to plan. Fluid is the name of the game in most places around the world and I believe God is giving wisdom to pastors all over the USA who are having to roll with the punches.

Over the years in Malawi we learned to focus on what COULD be done and NOT on what could NOT be done. The Lord himself has blessed this focus and even though we have not been able to do as much as I wish we could have, I have learned to stand in awe at what HAS HAPPENED for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ among the Malawian people.

From Malawi, reports continue to compile of more people getting saved & baptized. More precious converts being discipled and more blessed church services. We thank the Lord for this, and we ask you all to join us in prayer for those who have recently been saved. You never know what the Lord can do with someone who not only receives the Lord, but also walks in a new life of faith.

A few months ago we saw the doors of Malawi temporarily close as the whole world went into “lockdown”. We had positioned ourselves for a plan to return to the field when we had to, yet again, face the facts that our plans would need to change. The US Department of State who is responsible to process US Passports shut down nearly all of their processing offices entrapping three of our children's passports. Thanks to your prayers we have received all of the passports and are planning to return to the field in March. Please pray for provision and logistics for our trip over.

Thank you to all who have been praying for my daughter Rebekah. She had an accident while playing volleyball and broke her femur. The break was unique in that it broke very near to the knee joint. She ended up having to go in for a somewhat complex surgery to put it back together. Please pray she would recover fully and that she would be able to walk well again by the time we are ready to leave in March. The 40+ hour trip is daunting even without injury so please pray for her to recover well. The rest of the family is doing well, but we are all restless and ready to get back “home”. I cannot tell you how thankful I am to serve the Lord with such a great crew. They are all amazing little people and are each growing in the Lord at their own pace. Please pray that their hearts would be tender towards the Lord, and that God will give Jennie and I the grace and wisdom to raise them in the nurture and admonition of the Lord as we ought.

Finally, Please pray for Asher, Rebecca, Cara, David, Fauna, Demetrius, Christina, Brian, Naomi, Ronda, and the many others Jennie and I have had the opportunity to be a witness to recently. We can sow the seed, but only the Lord can show these folks their need for the truth of the gospel. It seems that there is such incredible hardness to the gospel in these last days, but there is still a chance for us to witness and there are still people getting saved. May the Lord help us to be found as faithful witnesses right up to the day of his coming.

Prayer Requests:

Salvation of those mentioned
Growth for converts in Malawi
Strength and Wisdom for Pastor Daniel and Pastor Alex
Current Church Plant in Malawi (Faith Baptist Church)
