Child Evangelism in Public Schools

Assembly at Danford Chirwa School

Pastor Nsofwa visits more than 25 public schools every month, where he is allowed up to 20 minutes in school assemblies to give a gospel message. He has been doing this work for several years, and he is now able to preach the Word of God to as many as 23,000 primary, high school, and university students and their teachers on a regular basis.

This work has produced rich spiritual dividends as many hundreds of young people have come to know the Lord Jesus Christ. Some who have graduated have entered into their own lives of Christian service.

In his report for November 2012, Gabriel notes that transport costs were $375 for visiting forty-four (44) schools. The closest school was within walking distance from his home, so there was no transportation cost. The two most distant schools are 30 kilometers (18 miles) from his home, and they cost about $25 in round-trip fares.

Challenge: To raise $350 monthly so that Gabriel can use taxis when required to go to these schools. Currently, he only has funds for about 1/2 of his visits, the rest of the time he walks or uses public transport to cut down the walking distance.
