The Gills in Malawi

We had a call from our mechanic today who we know and trust.  He has been really good to us in the past and helped us a lot.  We asked him his thoughts on our car and this is what he has said.  You have a hot potato, it is not worth fixing this car, it is better to sell it as a non runner and get another car.  He said it would take a lot of time and money to fix this car and he feels this is not wise

So that is the verdict!  What does that mean for us as a family?  For those of you who have not visited us here it means isolation.  It is hard for the kids not being able to see any friends and they quickly become discouraged.  We have been here once before for a very long 16 months of only going to town when we needed food and the kids not getting out at all. We cannot bear the thought of going through that again as it was a painful and difficult time, though we thank God for the grace he gave to us. To continue living and working at Hope Village we need a reliable car.

What can you do?  Please, please please pray!  Pray that God will give us the faith for a new car, that God's provision will come, for grace to be with us and the kids and for provision to come quickly!  We really need you to stand with us right now, more than ever.  Please pray for us!
