Christians of Malangalanga Ward From Msonkhamanja CCAP In Fundraising Event Towards Construction Projects At The Church

Christians from Malangalanga Ward of Msonkhamanja Church of Central African Presbyterian (CCAP)   have set an example among their fellow Christians of how a self help church can finance development activities taking place within the church.

On Easter Monday, Malangalanga CCAP Ward organised as a fundraising event where they were trying to raise money over K200 thousand towards extension of Msonkhamanja Manse house and construction of class rooms for the catechumen and Sunday school children.

The Christians were on the day, selling various foods ranging from drinks, fruits, braai and other local traditional foods like Nsima and rice among others

 
The Nkhoma Synod of CCAP has since hailed Malangalanga Ward Christians of Msonkhamanja church for being keen and taking part in important projects taking place at their church. 

Moderator for Nkhoma Synod and Pastor for Msonkhamanja CCAP Rev Dr. Chatha Nsangayambe  says Malangalanga Christians have set a good example to other wards of the importance of commitment to support the church and giving to God. The Revered also described such self help activities as significant and remarkable at the same time “ a sign of a live church.

“As an ongoing church with a lot of activities, we have several projects, one of them is the extension of the Manse. That work we have already started and we just want to do completion, then we have construction of classes for Catechumen members for their weekly classes. These projects will cost us up to K8 million but we are targeting that in this first quarter of the year we should raise not less than K5 million and then it will be a continued project because after this we have plans to begin another project of construction of a hall with modern facilities where people can use it for conferences and wedding events” he said 

Japheth Dindi, Chairperson for the Fundraising Committee of Malangalanga Ward from Msonkhamanja CCAP Church explained that “We have decided to reaise money for the two projects happening at Msonkhamanja CCAP because our reverend has had  problems whenever visitors come to our church. We usually book hotels to put up our visitors. So we decided that all our visitors should put up at the Manse House."

"The second problem is that we have lack of classes for our catechumen and Sunday school children, so we have decided to build the classes so that they should be learning under the shed in order to minimise incidences of class disruptions whenever it rains."

He went on, “This is why we are doing fundraising and we are hoping to raise not less than K200 thousand from this ward"
