The Church at Tsumba (2016)

Here’s a photo that represents all that we are about at SaltMalawi; it’s a photo taken in January 2016 of a joint meeting at our church in the village of Tsumba (close to our farm at Chiphazi) where our team have overcome a number of challenges in recent months establishing this church.

It shows happy, healthy, fed children (almost all wearing shoes), adults looking well and able to fend for themselves as a result of being offered work on the farm, many of whom have been identified as vulnerable – all at a time when famine and raging inflation has a grip on the nation.

The two smiling white faces at the left of the front rows of children are Andy & Jennie Holloway – the young married couple who have, for most of the past year, been working alongside our missionaries, Julian and Caroline Lott and the Malawian leaders (Caroline is seated in blue a few rows further back on the left, Julian is taking the photo), where they have spent time working with the children and visiting some of the more vulnerable older folk in their own village homes.
