I have been blessed with a new understanding of Spiritual friendship and would invite you to look at 2 Cor. Who could forget the times we spent digging the truck out, or clearing the brush in Nyala, or arguing about who got to ride in the back of the truck…And Heather and Brooke, I’m especially thankful for the hours we spent gazing at the incredible bird life in Malawi!Ībove all I want to thank you for the friendship that we share. Thanks also for showing me parts of the country I’ve never seen and for opening up your lives a bit to us in the process. …let me say Zikomo Kwambiri for all the grace you have shown us. ~ Sue Makin PC(USA) Missionary to Mulanje Mission Hospital, Malawi 12/4/04 It is wonderful to be able to have fellowship with you. ~ John, Rosemary, Claire, Aaron, Jonathan and Luke Hanson, Presbyterian Church of Ireland Missionaries, Blantyre Synod Great to be with people who speak the same language, (mostly) and eat the same food.

My stay here was more wonderful than I could ever imagine. ~ Emma Soye, Presbyterian Church of Ireland, Blantyre Thanks so much for a great sleepover and great food! Not that I got much sleep, tho! ~ Peter Olley, Aberdeen, Scotland 9/28/04 Your hospitality and the quality of discussion have been delightful! We learned so much about Malawi and its vibrant Christian Church. ~ Gordon and Catherine Neilson (Presbyterian Disaster Assistance) Oklahoma, 9/24/04 We are blessed to be with you and Jon (Chapman, PCUSA, Louisville) on this wonderful day. So, in their own words, here is what a few of our guests have written in our Malawian elephant dung paper guest book: We have told you about how much WE have enjoyed welcoming people from all over Malawi and the world into our home, but I thought it might be interesting for you to hear what they actually thought. One of the goals of our exchange program here, was “…offering hospitality to Malawians, American visitors and the international community that is gathered in Blantyre, making their home a true house of hospitality.”
