Agnes and Bright Update

This photo is of the Missional Law team with mother and son, Agnes and Bright.  This is the first bail application our team prepared and filed.  They were released on bail in December, 2015, after spending 19 months in prison.  We were able to meet with them on our recent visit to Malawi.  

At the time of his arrest, Bright had just finished his third year of secondary school (high school).  He was preparing to take government exams so he could finish his final year and attend college.  Bright would like to continue his education by being readmitted to secondary school.  When asked what he wants to do for a career, he stated he wants to be a lawyer so he can help those in prison.    

While we cannot go into the factual details of their case as it is ongoing, Missional Law will be assisting in Agnes and Bright's defense as we believe the facts show they have been improperly charged.  Presently, Agnes and Bright do not have the financial resources for Bright to continue his education at secondary school.  The tuition and other costs for a year is $200.  Missional Law also needs funds to assist with Agnes and Bright's defense. 

Please be in prayer for Agnes and Bright as they continue to adjust to life outside of prison, for their case, and for Pastor Charles and Amazing Grace Christian Ministry as they continue to minister to them.   If you would like to donate to Bright's schooling or the defense of his and Agnes' case, please go to the "Take Action" page and click "Donate."
