ASODZI, SUPPORTING THE
NEEDY
By John Nyadaufe
Galilea United
Methodist Church Men (Asodzi) donate assorted items to the four needy families
in the church on Sunday, April 1, 2012 as part of ministry to the deserving.
April 1, was the
men’s day to conduct the worship service at Galilea local church in Blantyre
which ended with contentment to some members who received maize, clothes and a
bible from the organisation which was organised as a present to end their week of
prayer and fasting. At the church service, it was Palm Sunday cerebrating the
entry of Jesus into Jerusalem.
Speaking as the secretary
of the Men’s Organisation, Stanley Ntchafu said they are pleased to support
church members who are vulnerable and lack food in their families due to some
challenges faced.
“We planned to
end our programme by sharing the little we gathered with fellow church members
as part of our ministry and doing God’s words as a true fast according to
Isaiah 58:7,” explained Ntchafu.
In response
after receiving the gifts, Fifteen Jambo appreciated the Men Organisation for
supporting them during this very trying moments and Jambo himself was unable to
provide the needs of his family due to illness.
“I was admitted
at the Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital for three weeks and praise God my
family is being supported by the church which is a true indication of
fulfilling God’s command of loving one another in hard times,” Jambo said.
The Men
Organisation was established in 2010 after the Men’s Convention in Lilongwe
with support from Methodist Men Organisation from Zimbabwe with a vision to
bring more souls to Christ through different ministries of the church. Reports show that Galilea Men Organisation is
one of the active organisations in the Malawi Missionary Conference.
