URGENT Prayer Request

Today there was a big Ball Game in Malawi. It was a great opportunity for Good Samaritan to get the Gospel out to the Malawian people in the form of passing out tracts. The Staff and teenagers handed the tracts to the people as they went into the stadium. The Gospel Tracts were yellow. During the game the current President of Malawi, spoke a few words. This president's flag is blue. The last president's flag was yellow. Participants of the Ball Game became excited and waved their "yellow" tracts in the air. The Malawi Police Department misunderstood and believed it was a planned protest against the current president.

The police then arrested four Good Samaritan staff and two of their teenagers along with 3 of their church members and took them to jail. Missionary John Fullford along with two other Good Samaritan Staff members have been working hard to get them released, but with no successes. The Police will not release them. Malawian jails are very different than those here in The States. One of the differences is that food, clothes and bedding are not provided. Good Samaritan will have to deliver food to these men or they will be left to starve to death in the jail.

Please lift up these men in prayer.

I will be praying that the Lord will reveal the truth and the men will be freed.
