Our flagship preschool in Lilongwe has experienced remarkable growth, now serving over 50 children under a charitable initiative. What began as a small effort to provide early childhood education has blossomed into a thriving centre of learning and community.
The school offers a structured curriculum that prepares young minds for primary education while nurturing their spiritual development. Children receive daily meals, educational materials, and a safe, loving environment where they can grow and discover their potential.

NEW INITIATIVE
Adult Education
Lilongwe, Malawi
Empowering Adults Through Literacy
The Lilongwe school has taken a commendable step forward by introducing an adult education program as part of its charitable efforts. This pioneering initiative assists adults who are eager to learn how to read and write, providing them with essential skills that can transform their lives and unlock new opportunities.
The establishment of this adult school reflects the ministry's deep commitment to community development and lifelong learning. By creating an inclusive environment where both children and adults can thrive and grow together, the programme embodies the belief that it is never too late to learn — and that education is a powerful tool for change, all under the umbrella of charity.

Feeding the Least of These
The church runs a vital feeding program that provides meals to children after church services. This program is truly helping many kids whose parents cannot afford to feed them during the day, ensuring that no child goes hungry when they come to worship.
But this initiative goes far beyond physical nourishment. The feeding program brings children closer to God, creating an environment where they experience His love in a tangible way. Since we started this program, the number of kids attending Samuel House (Sunday School) has dramatically increased in both Malawi and Zambia.
