175 years


You can change the course of Grace’s life.

From the moment she is born, Grace faces the prospect of a life with HIV. A life of daily medication and regular hospital visits, where routine infections can become life threatening illnesses. It doesn’t have to be like this. You can save Grace from a life with HIV. Please join us in praying for Grace and all those in Malawi facing hardship and sickness because of HIV.

Pray for Grace ÆÆ Pray that Grace would get the best start in life, that she would be free from HIV. ÆÆ Give thanks for all those who are dedicated to protecting children like Grace from this disease. ÆÆ Pray for the 180,000 children in Malawi living with HIV, that they would have the strength and care they need. ÆÆ Give thanks that, with the right support, no child must be born with HIV.


In Malawi, 180,000 children are living with HIV.


You can even the odds stacked against Grace.

Still reeling from devastating floods, life in Malawi is hard. Homes, livelihoods and crops were washed away and thousands of people have been left to fight just to get through each day. Grace must face all of this, with the additional burden of living with HIV. You can give Grace a fighting chance. You can help Grace face these challenges without the burden of HIV.


Pray for Malawi ÆÆ Pray for those still rebuilding their lives after the floods. ÆÆ Pray for a quick return to good harvest and an end to flood and drought. ÆÆ Pray that food aid would get to those who need it most, particularly those living with HIV. ÆÆ Pray for the dedicated Christian healthcare workers caring for people in such difficult circumstances.


“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.� John 10:10


You can give Grace life without HIV.

Across Malawi, children like Grace are born with HIV. The odds are stacked against them. Their lives are blighted with poor health and reduced chances of survival. It doesn’t have to be like this. Grace hasn’t been born yet. There’s still time to change the course of her life. Your gift means that Grace can be born without HIV. Grace’s mother needs food, medicine and a safe place to deliver. Your gift provides this and a volunteer Mother Buddy to care for and support her. These committed volunteers offer practical support, friendship and Christian compassion. This can change the course of Grace’s life. Grace can’t change any of this, but you can. You can save Grace from a life with HIV.

Pray for life ÆÆ Pray for Grace’s mother and others like her, that they would get the care they need to deliver their babies without HIV. ÆÆ Pray for an end to HIV and for fullness of life for the people of life. ÆÆ Give thanks for the hope of each child born without HIV.
