In our Pentecost countdown, I would like to feature the four Copperbelt churches strung along the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo in northwest Zambia.
We are thankful to God, the brethren, and for the leadership of Filius Jere for the development of the United Church of God congregations in Eastern Zambia. I would like to share this report with you about how God's Spirit is working in this remote part of Africa.
The theme of the weekend, “Becoming God's Precious Jewels” from Zechariah 9:16 made for a joyous time. We were 22 in number, with seven people in attendance from Kalukanya and 15 from the central church in Isoka.
It's been another wonderful experience of youth camp at Verino this year. Campers and staff working together to achieve a common goal, eternal life. With the different activities incorporated as we learn God's way of life. And this years' theme " Living God's Way Today," was well connected in the many activities that were put in place.
The Lusaka Zambia women enrichment weekend was held at our church property in Verino Chongwe. It was sponsored by South West Missouri women who tirelessly raised and provided funds to help this event in zambia which was held on 3rd July to 7th July, 2019. The funding was done through Debbie McNeely who was in Zambia and saw the situation that women could not hold the event without a helping hand.
Women's Enrichment programs were held in three areas of Zambia during the first week of July 2019. We have received our first report from the one held in Isoka in northeast Zambia.
