Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

In Eagle Wings ministry, I hope you began this year of 2016 very well, and it is our prayer that Lord will be with you, giving you strength, prosperity and wisdom throughout the year.

I am writing this email to ask you for more prayers due to the situation we are facing here. Last year we had floods all over but this year we are facing another hard situation of drought. As I am saying in this email, many people planted their crops several times due to very low rainfall. I have attached photos so that you can see, some of the photos were taken on 14th and 15th January 2016. So stand with us in prayers that rain should come, otherwise the dry spell will cause a lot of problems in many families. As I am sending you this email, prices of maize is K300.00 per Kilogram. Imagine, this is very bad, and at ADMARC, where many people buy maize at low price, there is no maize. Remember that the floods made the previous harvest to be very poor. This is the reason i am asking you to stand with us in prayer, because now the churches are affected already.

Due to devaluation of the Malawian currency the prices of basic needs have gone up. The packet of sugar that was used to be bought at K600.00 is now at K700.00 which is very hard to the most people to afford, and all the glossaries are being bought at high prices. Now life is becoming hard to all people.

Finally, I am wishing you all the best in the Year of 2016.

Your brother in Christ,

Pastor Julius
