Blantyre, July 15, Mana: Namisusa Seventh Day Adventist Children Ministry under Chiwandira District conducted a parade to inform people around Kampala-Manase in Blantyre, about a two-week gospel effort which started on Sunday evening July 14.

The youths distributed tracts along the way carrying detailed information about the gospel effort.

In an interview with Malawi News Agency (MANA) during the parade on Sunday, Namisusa Children Ministry Leader, Beatrice Mthyoka, encouraged people around Kampala-Manase to come and witness what the youth have brought to them through the gospel effort.

“Our hope after this gospel effort is that a lot of people will learn more about Hope in Christ and dedicate their lives fully to Jesus Christ,” she said.

District Pastor for Chiwandira, Benson Machaka, said preaching is one of the good methods to spread good news from the Bible to the whole world.

He encouraged Seventh-Day Adventist youth to take part in spreading the word of God.

Machaka said evangelization is in line with the Church’s 2024 gospel theme dubbed ‘I will go.’

He said gospel efforts play a vital role towards enhancing community and national development by fostering peace and unity among people.

“The people who fully understand the will of God will not harm each other or steal from one another since God forbids such immoral behaviour hence this effort is very important,” he said.

Group Village Head Kampala hailed Namisusa Children Ministry for the gospel effort which is being conducted in his area.

GVH Kampala said this kind of crusade is very important as it brings people together and share their experiences in Christ the Lord.

“A community with God fearing people has much peace and harmony. People tend to shun evil behaviour and embrace good character acceptable in the sight of God,” he said.

The gospel effort which will incorporate young preachers and health lessons will be held under the theme: ‘Hope in the Last Days.’
