 ZM is small and not aiming
to get much bigger!
In the UK there are no promotion or publicity departments, no glossy magazines
or brochures! There is only one full-time member of staff, supported by an Executive Council
of volunteers which usually meets four times a year to discuss and decide mission matters.

In Malawi ZM at one time had a sizeable team of workers from overseas but God has been building His
Church and there are now many mature and capable national Christians to do the work.
Malawians do not have the difficulties with climate, culture, customs and communication which so often
hamper the work of 'westerners' and forty or more can be supported for the cost of sending one person
from the UK!
From time to time workers from overseas countries are still needed for special roles but, in general,
ZM aims to support these national Christians. Their great need is for better training and more resources.
That's why ZM is still needed!
Here in the UK, we rely on a network of volunteers to 'tell the story', keep supporters informed, and encourage local churches.
We are always looking for help to develop our support network. If you could spare some time and energy we can equip you to spread the word and share the good news.
- You could become our key worker in your area.
- Or you could make a difference in your own church, bible group, school or college, using leaflets or resources we supply. We have a number of speakers ready to visit your group.
Raising awareness in the UK of ZM and the activity of the Church in Malawi and Mozambique, is vital to the future of this life-changing work. So please get in touch. m.beresford@zambesimission.org
