We have been receiving many inquiries about how coronavirus will affect our plans. Right now we don’t have a firm answer. We are praying and waiting to see what will happen in the next few months.
Malawi does not have any diagnosed cases of the virus yet and they are trying to prevent spread from happening as it could be catastrophic to their fragile healthcare system. The Government of Malawi has instituted a ban on all commercial international flights effective Wednesday, April 1, 2020 with no end date as of yet.
The Global Health Advisory has issued a travel alert of do not travel to prevent the spread of the virus. travel within the US is limited to essential travel as well and since in California we are currently sheltering in place we will not be traveling.
However, things change quickly as we have seen. We were planning on leaving end of May to Florida and the beginning of July to Malawi. So right now we are simply waiting, praying and resting in Gods faithfulness. If need be we will postpone our trip until it is safe to travel. We want to keep our family safe, but more importantly, we want to keep the people we will be serving safe.
Please keep lifting our world up in prayer as we weather this storm. Pray for those making the hard decisions during this time and for those who are living in fear and anxiety.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7)

Thank you for the update.
I hear peace in your waiting.
Praying for the five of you, and definitely for the people of Malawi that they will stay virus-free.
