Chiwaula Church Meeting
Sunday, June 29, 2003
Chiwaula Village, Zomba District, Malawi, Africa

These are the brethren and visitors attending the meeting at the Chiwaula Church on Sunday, 29 June, 2003. Chiwaula is located about 90 kilometers (not as the crow flies, but according to the roads we had to travel to get there) northeast of Blantyre in the Zomba District. According to the traditions in this area, the sisters met us a little ways from the church building and escorted us, singing as they moved along. We had some of the members from three nearby congregations in attendance. In addition, there were about 25 preachers from other areas of Zomba District who came to encourage the work in this particular area. I was the speaker for the occasion and Davidson Kasambwe was the translator. This was another of those congregations where the people gave us their undivided attention. When people pay as close attention to the preaching as these brethren did, we are encouraged. We leave convinced that our labors have not been in vain. The preacher working with this congregation is Brother R. M. Chimera. The man in front on the left in light trousers and gray coat is Chief Chiwaula. --Jim Franklin, P.O. Box 573, Blantyre, Malawi
