“Flames of Fire”
“Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them-not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.
In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another…” 1 Peter 5: 2-5
“Igniting the Churches in the Warm Heart of Africa”
Malawi’s name means “Flames of Fire” ….
And is also known as being the “Warm Heart of Africa”.…
We experienced this as our team traveled to 6 different locations this month:
Mayaka, Malosa, Zomba, Phalombe, Blantyre, & Chikwawa
Coming alongside H.I.M. Ministries in the southern region of Malawi with Pastor Medson Gama & his wife Rose
we empowered an average 150 pastors (some with their wives!) through sharing our testimonies, preaching, teaching, & prayer
Feeling very much like Paul, as he visited various locations while establishing the early church,
I recognized the importance of encouraging, empowering, & igniting our leaders in the Body of Christ!
So often they are pouring out so much of themselves to those in their congregations (me & you),
giving but not receiving and are therefore overlooked.
Oh, but church how we must….
Let us….
love more, give more, & submit more to our leaders as they care for us as their sheep!
