Soccer Nets & Nervous Coffee

God has brought our team from Eugene First safely to Lilongwe, Malawi.  They are serving the people around them every day and being blessed in the process!


The kids from the nearby elementary school were surprised by the Schwin family and a couple others with new soccer nets.  They loved it!  The young adults and teens were on their cell phones immediately, and, before they knew it, there was a soccer match scheduled for 2:30 in the afternoon - THAT DAY!


Pastor Les is apparently so much in his element, with his passion to serve, that we might not ever get him back to Eugene!  One of his teammates said, "He has so much energy he makes coffee nervous."  Pray that he and the rest of the team will be able to keep up this energy level.  And praise God that all are still very healthy and even the mosquitoes are keeping at bay!

"It is amazing how fast and how well we have connected with the people...they love our 
humor and energy" - Anna Marie

Today the team is traveling to a treatment/care center for disabled children.  Pray for them as they travel, serve others and share Christ's love with hurting children.  Pray for miracles and lives changed!
