Malawi Land Development Project
Multiple small plots of land were purchased in Malawi in 2019 to obtain one large 8-10 acre rectangular plot. This has been a long-time goal and dream to purchase land and develop it as a place to serve and minister not only to the needs of the Church of God and ministers in Malawi but also to be a place to educate people of the community.
Purpose:
- Site for Malawi national camp meetings.
- Place for longer term ministers’ meetings and teaching.
- Center for youth programs to advocate spiritual and temporal advancement.
- Provide agricultural training to the community geared for the substance farmer.
- Showcase farm onsite.
- Educational Center: Financial literacy, marriage training, etc.
