WELCOME!

Welcome to my blog where I want to share with you some of my experiences as I look forward to going to Malawi, Africa in the near future, Lord willing.

Some facts about me:

• My name is Leanna Veldhuizen

• A lifelong resident of Southern Ontario

• Member of the Netherlands Reformed Congregations

• The oldest of 5 children

• Prefer small towns and country life to the big city

• Have been to Malawi 4 times (totaling 10.5 months)

What am I going to do in Malawi?

There is not just one word that encompasses my work. I will be involved in assisting the sponsorship program, mentoring students, leading clubs (such as English club where students practice speaking and writing English, etc).

In all of this, as opportunity arises, I hope the Word of God can also be shared.

When will I do this?

If all goes well and everything is in order in time, I hope to leave for Malawi sometime before Christmas.

What can you do?

First of all, I would ask for your prayers, not only for me personally, but also for a blessing on the work I hope to do. “Without Me, ye can do nothing.” John 15:5.

Secondly, this work is done on a volunteer basis. This means that all of my expenses are paid through the generosity of others. I would love your support through volunteering, donations, but above all, your thoughts and prayers.
