Malawi Flood Disaster

by David Morrison      

On Sunday nights we gather for worship on the Iris base to welcome in the new week. Our theme this week was Joshua 1:9, “Be strong and courageous; do not be frightened or dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”  Little did we know how important that verse was going to be as we walked through the week. 

April 10, 2014 - Flooding in Northern Mozambique: RESPONSE TO A CRISIS…IN JESUS’ NAME

This past rainy season in Northern Mozambique has been much more severe than normal. The rains began early in December and fell in torrents. They continued unabated through February…and then greatly intensified in March when normally the rain is tapering off. Day after day the rains continued with hurricane force and in unprecedented volume. Valleys became lakes, and houses built in those valleys simply disappeared with all their contents. Simple bamboo, mud and grass village “houses” were unable to withstand the onslaught and slowly—or quickly—disintegrated.

Coming Soon - Toronto Showing of the New Iris Documentary Film

Compelled by Love -  the Film

The film is a feature-length documentary tracing the movement of revival sweeping across Mozambique, and the Baker's own personal journey of intimacy with Jesus -- our primary pursuit in life is always the presence of God. One life surrendered...one nation transformed.

If you are in the Toronto area, please join us at the release showing of the film at 7 pm. on January 19/2014 at CTF (formerly Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship) - 272 Attwell Drive, Etobicoke, ON  M9W 6M3.  Phone: 417 674-8463.

January 25, 2012 Flood Update

Dear Friends of the Morrison’s and the Iris Africa Team in Malawi:

As many of you already know, the Bangula region of southern Malawi was devastated by flash flooding a few days ago that caused havoc throughout the local villages and left hundreds of families homeless with little left but the clothes on their backs. The depth of water streaming through the Bangula market area was over four feet high, crashing through shops, destroying merchandise, and collapsing buildings.
