This summer (July 4-26) a staff couple, Haswell and Maria, from Florence will be leading a group of Italians (and Americans) to Malawi Africa for a three-week summer project! This is such an exciting opportunity for Italians to become a part of how God is working in the world and for God to work in their lives. Two weeks ago, we held a dinner and presentation for students interested in going to Malawi, and tonight we will have a benefit concert! The heart behind the trip to Malawi is to combine doing good deeds and sharing the good news of the Gospel. Throughout the trip, during the day, the group will work to build a school house, build a well, and provide for various other needs. At night, participants will have the opportunity to pair up with a team that is showing the Jesus film in surrounding villages to share Jesus’ life with the Malawians. This trip is open to both Italian believers and non-believers. The only requirement is that they would not be opposed to the Gospel being shared. This is an incredible opportunity for Italians to gain a heart for the world, to learn more about Jesus, and to see how Jesus changes lives. (Side note: it will also be optional for participants to stay another week to go club hunting in Malawi!) Please pray that some Romans would be able to go on this trip and be a part of this life-changing experience!
Tonight, we will be having a benefit concert for Malawi, where proceeds will go toward the cost of the trip and supplies. The concert is also one of our outreaches during this time of Spring Break. An American band and an Italian band will be playing tonight, and Haswell will also share a little about the trip. So exciting!!
