aims to foster “partnerships in the Gospel” between Christians
and churches in the UK and their counterparts in Malawi and northern Mozambique. They recognise that our partnership in the Gospel is not just a one-way relationship. The aim of inviting church leaders from Malawi to
visit churches in the UK is two-fold:
Firstly, they want to bring the partnership to life by actually meeting leaders from the church in Malawi. Secondly, as part of our interdependent relationship, they/we wish to learn from God through our Malawian brothers in Christ. zm
