In countries like ours many gifts are unwanted, soon rejected, duplicated or stored away
and quickly forgotten. And at Christmas time in particular our dustbins have much more food inside them
than the vast majority of people in this world have inside them. Here's a chance to give
something to someone who has virtually nothing !
 A
bicycle for a Pastor
In Malawi a pastor often cares for several Churches and these can be miles apart.
A cycle would be of great help in his ministry.

 Sunday
School Resources
Churches have large Sunday
Schools and Youth Groups but very few teaching materials.
|
|
|
 A
Bible
Many people have little hope of ever having a Bible and one way to help is
to give some for a Church to use as a library.

 A
month's food for an orphan child
Most orphans are taken into homes which are already short of food and other
basic resources. The Day Care Centres give nourishing meals as well as health care, clothing, education,
Christian teaching and recreation

 Goats & Chickens
for a family caring for orphans.
Two goats and four chickens will provide a livelihood ~ and more goats and chickens
for
other families!

 Study
Books for Pastors
Many pastors and other Christian leaders are preaching and teaching
large companies of people but have no devotional or study materials to use in preparation. The books
a pastor could receive upon leaving Bible College or attending a Pastors' Refresher Course will probably
be the only ones he ever owns!

 One
year's fees for a youngster in Secondary Education
Junior Education is free in Malawi ..and that is as far
as most children get! The level of poverty is such that most families cannot meet the costs of Secondary
Schools. To help youngsters further their education is to greatly improve their employment prospects
and the assistance they can give to their families.

 Sponsoring
a student in Bible College
It costs about £700 a year to sponsor someone studying
at the Evangelical Bible College of Malawi ~ but any gift is a help! The rapidly growing Churches
are in great need of trained leaders but there is very little likelihood of a Malawian receiving such
training without such support.

If we can help please get
in touch with one of the addresses listed below.
If you send a gift for Malawi on behalf of a particular friend or relative we can provide a simple Christmas
card with a picture and a few sentences about your chosen project. If you let us have the details we
can either send it directly to your friend or to you so that you can add your own greeting.
Please make cheques payable to Zambesi Mission.
