you have all been working so hard and may starting to become tierd but hold on to Isaiah 40 v29 - 31 " He gives strengh to the weary and increases the power of the weak. even youths grow tierd and weary and young men stumble and fall: but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. the will soar on wings like eagles: they will run and not grow weary. they will walk and not be faint. "
Hi Everybody Brilliant blog from you today - news, pictures, editing. You even surpass "The Times" though I humbly confess I have sold out to the Daily Mail for the last few weeks. Apologies to Ian - I haven't however moved to the right of Attila the Hun or Genghis Khan, I have been collecting tokens for the highly acclaimed World at War DVD series. I have found your blog to not only be very intersting and informative but also strangely moving - I became quite emotional especially with the photograph of Aileen conducting the eye clinic. I suggested to Jean she should put that one up on Ian Faith's notice board. I will encourage the church to listen in to Sunday at Seven on WestSound to hear that heartthrob of the airwaves - Mike Buick. I may even invite them to join Jean and me for a bag of chips at Troon - provided they pay for their own. Remembering you all in prayer - we will particularly prayy for you on Sunday at the Prayer and Bar B Q at Stevie and Eleanor's. See you next week [DV] at the BIG WEEK. With Christian Love Alastair
Great to hear from you. Missed the blog yesterday, hoped and prayed everything was ok. Thought you'd maybe to busy as you were. Weather was better here for about 2/3 days and now back to heavy rain. What happened to story of Ron and the magistrate? Continuing to pray and think of you all. You are doing a wonderful job. Love to you all. Rod and Jules x
Hi everyone thank you so much for the blogs.It is great to hear what you have all been doing and the photos are fabulous. Hope you enjoy your day at Liwonde National Park - watch out for the crocs. Al hope your dodgy stomach is improving and thanks for the Email as the kids have been desperate to hear from you. Will be remembering you all as you leave Chisomo and travel home. Love to all hazel XX
I have been keeping up to date with ALL you have been doing and praying for you but couldn't manage the blog bit. Rang BG this afternoon as he is obviously an expert in these matters. He confessed to having had a little help from a friend! We marvelled at modern technology but more importantly at the way God is working in so many lives.You have already achieved so much as you work alongside all the children and adults you are in contact with and I trust you will have a very real sense of God's continuing presence and purpose over the remaining time.

Hi to all the Malawi team from sunny Troon. It is a pleasure to be able to tune in and hear about your exploits - the wonders of modern technology! The pictures are great to see. Linda and I watched 'The Last King of Scotland' last week and the similarities are so real - especially the medical shots of Eileen doing whatever it is she does concerning the eyeballs and surrounding areas!
The picture on Tues 24 with Mama K and the child on the slidy floor is particularly amusing, so too is the one of Alistair just after he has milked the cow. The bottom pic is equally fascinating - I did not realise that Ian did the evening course at ICC which taught levitation - I wish I had taken that one - very impressive!
On Sat 21 it was good to see Butch Cassidy doing his community service, and on Fri 20 - at last there is a footie team that would pick Ron and Nath - well done boys, God will always ensure that everyone finds a place in his purposes, where no one is left out!
Will keep a look out on the blog , for further developments, and hope to see you all at Mike and Eileen's. Hope the food is good and the foot tappings and knee tremblings are not as violent and frequent as the last time!
It's great to hear from you today, all your pictures look super and by the sounds of things you are all very busy!! What happened to Ron and the magistrate...did he keep him for that tax fraud a couple of years ago?(only kidding big bro)
Enjoy your trip on Saturday to the national park and hope it all goes well. Nathan, keep your hands in your pockets that day and don't adopt anymore monkeys!
We are 12 members of Riverside Church, Ayr, Scotland heading out to visit our friends at Chisomo Children's Club, Malawi. Chisomo work with street children. Wherever possible Chisomo help reunite children with their families. Chisomo supports the education of street children, gives grants and provides training for small business start-ups. Everything they do is aimed at helping the children to take responsibility for themselves and for their families. We are going to be painting one of their centres, visiting schools, shadowing Chisomo's social workers and working (playing!) with the children.
This has all been made possible by TEARFUND, a UK based Christian relief and development agency. Find out more about them and their Transform teams at www.tearfund.org
