New Church Connect in Malawi

At Links we are passionate about seeing local churches around the world partner and share the mission of God’s kingdom. Earlier this year a team from Ashwood Church strengthened their ongoing partnership with the Malawi organisation Hope Missions Ministries.^‍‍^‍

On hearing about successful church partnerships like Ashwood and Hope through Links, another UK church, River Church, expressed keen interest in visiting Malawi and launching a new Church Connect with our partners, Seeds of Promise. River learned about Seeds’ vision and mission and particularly valued their focus on women’s empowerment and sustainable business models.

This month River sent a small team to Malawi to support business training with women’s empowerment groups and to deliver interactive team building and vision-shaping materials to all Seeds area leaders. The team also contributed to Seeds’ existing IT programme to help build staff knowledge and capacity.

Thank you to Seeds for warmly welcoming this new Church Connect and to River for bringing valuable wisdom and strategic insight. We believe this connection will grow over the next few years, with teams ideally visiting annually to build on Seeds’ needs and long-term vision.
