Mambalima Conference

Greetings all. I have just returned from two nights at the Mambalima Conference. Thousands of people were in attendance, all camped out beside the Luapula River. It was hot (35C as I left) and dusty, but they were all enjoying the fellowship, teaching and choirs!

I was able to teach two sessions on Christian Marriage, bringing the challenge to the people to let the Word of God bring changes to their culture, both as Zambians and also as members of CMML churches. There seemed to be good responses and it is so encouraging to see so many people taking notes as the Word is opened. I would say that the smaller leadership conferences are much more strategic and beneficial, however this was a wonderful opportunity to proclaim God’s truth and also encourage the work of Samfya Bible School.

Gwen & I are now in full swing to prepare for the arrival of the EMI team next week. Gwen will co-ordinate the food and we need to make a supply trip to Mansa. Thanks for your ongoing prayers, we are all in good health and enjoying the blessings of the Lord in this place.
