leaving

I leave tomorrow for Malawi (SE Africa). I will be gone until Saturday, February 28. Please be in prayer for my wife and girls as I am gone. The last time I was out of the country for a trip like this for this length we only had one child. It was also on that trip that I found out that Shelly was pregnant with Sydney (found out via email).

I am really excited about what God is going to do. There are six of us going and I believe only 4 are ordained so I may end up doing more than I originally anticipated. If you are unfamiliar about what our trip entails, click on http://watkinsscott.blogspot.com/2008/10/malawi.html to read about it.

I recently found out that the average life span in Malawi is only 36 and the average person is under 16. AIDS has ravaged this nation so much. Pray for the Malawians that they will be able to truly comprehend the love of Christ. They are the 3rd poorest nation in the world but really don’t know that. They truly need Jesus.

I am going to try to blog while I am there but obviously my internet access will be limited. Have a wonderful day and I will tell you all about my trip when I get home.
